GERMANY'S Michael Jung added Olympic equestrian eventing gold to the world and European titles he also holds following Tuesday's action at Greenwich Park.

British riders, who secured a silver medal in the team event earlier today, were edged out in the individual honours after a disappointing showjumping stage.

Second for the silver medal was Sweden's Sara Algotsson Ostholt and another German - Sandra Auffarth - took bronze.

Algotsson Ostholt would have taken the gold but she had the last fence down and that enabled Jung to triumph.
