Some of the finest horse riders in America are converging on Los Angeles from today through Sunday, competing for $1 million in prize money at the Longines Masters at the Convention Center.
This is the only recognized show jumping competition on the West Coast. The American leg of the Masters series has attracted top ranked international riders, including 16 Olympians, 22 world equestrian games team members, 10 World Cup final medalists and the Pan American Games Team USA bronze medalists and individual gold medalist McLain Ward.
“As we work to bring the Olympic Games here in 2024, we welcome the world’s top show jumpers,” Mayor Garcetti said.
The Longines Masters is staged around the world, including Paris and Hong Kong. The unique series is recognized by the Federation Equestre Internationale.
