Adelinde Cornelissen (born July 8, 1979 in Beilen ) is a Dutch dressage rider.

With Parzival, Cornelissen is second in the FEI dressage world rankings in January 2013 . Before that, at the end of 2009, both were at the top of the world rankings for three months in a row (104th to 106th world rankings), from July 2011 to September 2012 and in November and December 2012.

Career

Adelinde Cornelissen was born in 1979. Her parents both worked as teachers. At the age of six, Cornelissen started riding, initially on ponies. With Ayesha , a Welsh pony , she had her first tournament success. With this pony she won both the Dutch "open air" and the indoor championship for pony dressage riders (Z2 dressage) in 1995. With the ponies Whitsun (a son of Ayesha ) and Mr. Pride she won the provincial championship of Drenthe . In 1997 she won both Dutch dressage championships in class Z1 with Mr. Pride .

After completing her school career, she began studying English. One year after starting her studies, she had the chance to take up a job at a new stable in Canada. She decided to finish her studies as soon as she returned to the Netherlands.

After she rode other horses at Z2 level in a row, she got the opportunity to ride Parzival . With this she achieved several national successes from 2004 (2004: Dutch reserve champion class ZZ-light, February 2005: Dutch reserve champion class ZZ-difficult. Beginning of 2006: 4th place in the Dutch championship, light tour, February 2007: Dutch indoor champion in the Grand Prix Tour). Also in 2007 she competed with Parzival in her first international test at the Stallion Show in Zwolle (CDI 3 *). She had her first start in an international test abroad at the CDIO 3 * Falsterbo in July 2007, where she came second with Parzival behind Jan Brink in the Grand Prix and Grand Prix Spécial . In 2008 she was second with Parzival in the Dutch indoor championship and first in the Dutch championship.

After completing her studies, she worked as an English teacher in Meppel until March 2008 . She then decided to concentrate fully on the sport this year, including preparing for the Olympic Games , for which she was nominated as reserve rider. The following winter, she planned to take part in the World Cup finals for the first time , but this failed due to an injury to Parzival . She achieved her greatest success so far in the summer of 2009 when she became European Champion in the Grand Prix Spécial and Vice European Champion in the Grand Prix Freestyle with Parzival . In winter 2009/2010 she came second in the World Cup finals.

In Drenthe, Cornelissen was voted Sportswoman of the Year from 2007 to 2009.

Your sponsor since January 2010 is the logistics group Jerich International . Its director Herbert Jerich acquired a 50 percent stake in Parzival and thus gave Cornelissen the opportunity to ride him until at least 2013. In April 2010 she lost her four-year-old young horse Brentano , which was hit by a car and seriously injured.

At the 2010 World Equestrian Games in Lexington, she started with Parzival as part of the Dutch team. In the Grand Prix , the team evaluation test, she was rang and disqualified during the test due to a bloody mouth on her horse. The Dutch trainer Sjef Janssen stated that he suspected that Parzival bit his tongue while pointing backwards . Adelinde Cornelissen was thus a strike result for the Dutch team, which won the gold medal in the team competition.

The year 2011 began for Adelinde Cornelissen after several victories in World Cup competitions with victory in the World Cup finals . This continued at the European Championships in Rotterdam when she won bronze with the team as the best Dutch rider and won both gold medals in the individual ranking. In 2012 she won the World Cup final again with Parzival .

Adelinde Cornelissen had her first Olympic participation at the 2012 Summer Olympics . Here she achieved the team bronze medal with Parzival and won silver in the individual ranking. The chief judge of the test, Stephen Clarke from the United Kingdom, justified the victory of Charlotte Dujardin : “With Adelinde Cornelissen's horse we missed the lightness and the self-holding. Today it was a decision for the harmony of Charlotte and Valegro. ”This justified the victory, although many observers had considered Cornelissen's ride to be more athletic and expressive.

With Parzival, she finished second at the 2013 World Cup finals . In the summer Parzival was diagnosed with cardiac arrhythmias. With an operation, however, the gelding could be kept in sport.

At the European Championships in 2013 , Cornelissen won team silver and bronze in both individual ratings with Parzival . They won two bronze medals at the 2014 World Equestrian Games . Due to the decreasing ratings of Adelinde Cornelissen and Parzival , the Dutch national coach Wim Ernes decided not to nominate the couple for a championship in 2015.

Although Cornelissen publicly thought about a farewell to Parzival after the previous year's non-nomination , both competed several times in 2016 and were nominated for the Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro . But Adelinde Cornelissen's second Olympic Games did not go as expected: the day before the Grand Prix, Parzival was stung by an insect or a spider and developed a fever. He was given infusions (not relevant to doping / medication) . Since Madeleine Witte-Vrees and Danielle Heijkoop had rejected their nomination as substitute riders in the run-up to the Olympic Games, the Dutch team had no substitute pair available. The vets had no concerns about the start of Parzival on Grand Prix day . In the test, however, the 19-year-old gelding was limp and pushed his tongue out of his mouth several times. Adelinde Cornelissen therefore gave up. For the first time in years, the Netherlands missed a team medal without a cancellation result and with poorer performances by the remaining riders.

In the spring of 2016, Cornelissen competed for the first time with her new Grand Prix horse Aqiedo at a national tournament. The video of the ride published on the Internet was partially sharply criticized, in particular a lack of permeability and slackness was criticized. In May and June 2016, Adelinde Cornelissen and Aqiedo made their first two international starts with scores in the 71 and 72 percent range.

At the 2017 World Championships for Young Dressage Horses , the Totilas son Governor , ridden by Adelinde Cornelissen, won the ranking for six-year-old horses.

The dressage stable she runs is in Spier .
