Equestrian at the 2004 Summer Olympics – Team eventing explained

The team eventing event, part of the equestrian program at the 2004 Summer Olympics, was held from the 15–18 August 2004. For the first time since 1992, the team and individual contests ran concurrently. The team event used the results of the first three phases of the individual eventing program to award rankings. A fourth phase (a second jumping round) was included in the individual competition for the first time. The competition was held at the Olympic Equestrian Centre on the outskirts of Markopoulo, in the Attica region of Greece. Like all other equestrian events, the eventing competition was mixed gender, with both male and female athletes competing in the same division. 14 teams, each consisting of between three and five horse and rider pairs, entered the contest.^[1]

Results

By individual

The team event used the points from the end of the third phase of competition. 65 of the 75 pairs that competed in the individual event were members of a team. Team members are shown below, with scores used for the team highlighted. Only the top three pairs on a national team had their scores used for the team score. Pairs that were eliminated or withdrew received 1000 penalty points, which would have guaranteed a last-place finish for any team that had to use that pair's score.
