U.S. Olympic Equestrian Team

The equestrian competition at the Olympic Games consists of dressage, jumping and eventing. This year, the equestrian portion of the competition is taking place in Hong Kong. O’Connor was a last-minute replacement for Heidi White, who withdrew her horse Northern Spy for health reasons. O’Connor is no newcomer to the Olympics: this will be her fourth appearance at the games.
