The Olympic Games Rio 2016

The course for Wednesday's team final, also the 3rd individual qualifier in Rio, was huge! Here Marcus Ehning trying to look over the a-element of the double of planks. All photos (c) Jenny Abrahamsson.

When George Morris speaks, you listen! 3/4 of the Brazilian team with Eduardo Menezes, Doda de Miranda and Stephan de Freitas Barcha.

Henrik von Eckermann looked quite confused while going through the course with Markus Beerbaum and Marcus Ehning.

Beezie Madden was dressed to compete and walked the course - here with her husband John Madden - but was in the end not riding due to an injury for Cortes 'C'.

Eric Lamaze looked very determined...

... and Janika Sprunger very focused.

The British team didn't qualify for the final, but two riders were still in for the individual qualifier: Here Chef d'Equipe Di Lampard with Nick Skelton and Ben Maher.

The double of planks got a lot of attention during the course walk, but didn't cause that many faults during the competition. Here Jerome Guery having a closer look.
