‘Staggering… that is the Usain Bolt of dressage’

Sky Sports activities Information’ Geraint Hughes in Paris:

That is staggering that it is an athlete of Charlotte Dujardin’s stature and that that is taking place simply days earlier than the Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Video games and the Video games themselves get underway.

In dressage Charlotte Dujardin is nearly as good because it will get, a three-time gold medallist, six medals in all. She’s probably the most embellished feminine British Olympian of all time alongside Laura Kenny. One among Group GB’s greats. She has held each single title doable inside her profession. There isn’t a one who can contact her, she is peerless. She is the Usain Bolt of dressage.

She’s clearly alluding to an error of judgement right here in that assertion. We await to search out out precisely what she has completed however the assertion makes it clear her sorrow but in addition simply the seriousness of what has occurred with the video now beneath investigation by the governing physique of the game.

It might take a while to finish that investigation and the recommendation is that she shouldn’t compete till that investigation is concluded.

In all probability the largest understatement, this isn’t what Group GB need, not what the Olympics desires simply days earlier than the competitors is about to start right here.
