β 14y agoThrough the 2008 Games in Beijing, three athletes have won 8 Olympic medals in dressage ...
1) Reimer Klimke - Germany: won 5 medals (5 gold) in team competition and 3 medals (1 gold, 2 bronze) in individual competition.
2) Isabell Werth - Germany: won 4 medals (4 gold) in team competition and 4 medals (1 gold, 3 silver) in individual competition.
3) Anky van Grunsven - Netherlands: won 4 medals (4 silver) in team competition and 4 medals (3 gold, 1 silver) in individual competition.
Werth and van Grunsven competed at the 2008 Games and, should they compete at the 2012 Games in London, will probably go ahead of Klimke (final competition was the 1988 Games) in total dressage medals won.
