SWEDEN’s Henrik von Eckermann is the new Longines world number one show jumping rider in the world.

The rankings, published on August 3rd, originally had Switzerland’s Martin Fuchs as the world number one for the third consecutive month, however, it was revealed that the dates for jumping events in Tokyo 2020 were not accurately represented in the FEI Calendar and therefore 25% of the points obtained by Jumping athletes at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games were not taken into account. The start date for jumping at Tokyo 2020, where von Eckermann won team gold, was then adjusted and the rankings
recalculated and updated accordingly.
