Overall result
The decision for the World Cup victory took place in the jump-off after Steve Guerdat and Rich Fellers were equal in first place after four laps in three partial tests. In the jump-off, Steve Guerdat showed a very fast lap with his gelding Nino des Buissonnets . Rich Fellers went into the jump-off as the second starter and was initially at the same time as Guerdat. With a very good turn, however, he was able to gain an advantage over the two of Guerdat and crossed the finish line with a 64-hundredth advantage.
Rich Fellers is the first US World Cup winner in 25 years (in 1987 the US American Katharine Burdsall won ).

" " We decided to start because it would have been exactly what he wanted, but it was a difficult competition. " "
A minute's silence was observed before the award ceremony of the Grand Prix des Dressage.
media
In German-speaking countries, WDR television broadcast the last partial test of the show jumping World Cup final for more than two hours.
