Last Friday, the home team dominated in the CSIO5* Longines FEI Jumping Nations Cup™ of the Netherlands at CHIO Rotterdam with a win on a score of zero, ahead of the French and Irish on eight penalties. This very exciting class had many twists and turns that kept the spectators at the edge of their seats until the very end. Here, we look back at the action at the traditional Dutch venue, where CHIO Rotterdam 2022 marked the 73rd edition of the event.
