The Grand Slam of Eventing Series, which runs across three CCI5* eventing competitions, the Defender Kentucky Three Day Event (USA), Mars Badminton Horse Trials (UK) and Defender Burghley Horse Trials (UK), is looking for a new sponsor.

The prestigious award, previously known as the Rolex Grand Slam of Eventing, is presented to a rider who has won all three Grand Slam events consecutively (not necessarily in the same year). This $350,000 prize was won by Pippa Funnell in 2003 and by the only three-time Olympic individual gold medallist in eventing, Michael Jung, in 2016. 

The Organisers would like to thank Rolex for their decades-long support of this important series but now, for the first time in 23 years, the title sponsorship of this iconic series has become available.

The Organisers of the Grand Slam events are seeking a new title partner and encourage interested parties to contact James Wolf, Wolf Sports Group, [email protected]
