  • Competing for: Belgium

Born in Belgium, Gregory Wathelet began riding at his father’s farm as a child. Some of the key highlights of his career include winning the CSI4* Grand Prix in Liége (2004) and the CSI4* Grand Prix in Wiesbaden (2007), coming 2nd at the World Cup in Mechelen (2010) and winning the World Cup in Mechelen (2011). Overall though, his most memorable show jumping moments have been coming 4th with his team at the World Championships in Aachen in 2006 and winning the Global Champions Tour Grand Prix in Cannes in 2007. In a career full of fantastic horses, he rates Lantinus and Cortes as the finest. If he had to describe Global Champions Tour in a few words he’d say ‘best riders and top sport.’
