Major schedule change! ICYMI: Sunday’s show jumping phase has been rescheduled for Monday, September 17th due to heavy rain starting on Saturday evening through Sunday. Cross country remains unaffected and will start at 11am today as planned, but the interval between horses will be reduced from four to three minutes. The course length will remain the full length, but with two fences removed (23A and 24B). Here’s wishing absolutely everyone safe and speedy rides today (and here’s wishing all you spectators safe and speedy shuttle rides from parking as well. Godspeed.)

For all you home-viewers, don’t forget that you can watch the cross country action live on NBCSN and The Olympic Channel. If you’ve got cable, do your duty to support equestrianism in the main stream media and tune in to get viewership up. For all the WEG-watching options we can find on TV and online, check out our guide.
