Leslie
Law:
Olympic Gold Medalist,
European Championship Gold, World Bronze
Medalist. One of our Favorites!
We are very excited to have Leslie Law back at Tulipsprings this year!
Leslie is the Athens Olympics Three Day Eventing individual champion
and team silver medalist. In the Three Day Event he performed a
personal best in the dressage with a score of 43.2 and following an
uncomfortable moment at the water jump went on to complete a clean
cross country round with only 1.2 time penalties. In the final phase
Leslie rode a clear show jumping round to help secure team silver.
Law then went on to jump a second clear round for individual honors;
this performance, one of only two double clears, elevated Law from
fifth place to Olympic Champion.
Known for his consistency, Law has a string of successes including a
team silver in Sydney 2000, European team gold in 2001 and 2003 and
World team bronze in 2002. Shear L’Eau, who he rode into gold medal
position in Athens is full brother to Shear H20 who was his Olympic
mount in Sydney 2000.
