The individual jumping at the 1960 Summer Olympics took place on 7 September, at the Stadio Olimpico. The event was open to men and women. It was the 11th appearance of the event.[1]

Background

There were two separate jumping competitions for individual and team medals, the first time this had occurred since 1920. 69 riders from 23 countries competed, and more than half of the riders had faults at either the 5 meter water jump or the triple combination, which had very odd distances. 9 of the 18 teams did not finish the first round. Although they were considered eliminated under Olympic rules, the Technical Delegate chose to implement a rule allowing eliminated riders to continue with a score that was equal to the worst non-eliminated rider, plus 20 additional penalties. This allowed all 18 teams to jump in the second round.

The individual medals were fought out between the two d’Inzeo brothers, Raimondo and Piero, David Broome, and Argentinean Naldo Dasso. The first round saw Raimondo d’Inzeo and Posillipo with the single clear, followed by Naldo Dasso with 4 penalties, and Piero d’Inzeo and his mount Max Fresson with eight. David Broome (7 penalties) had the best ride of the second round, while Piero d’Inzeo and Hans-Günter Winkler each had 8 faults, and the leader, Raimondo d’Inzeo had 3 rails down for 12 faults. Raimondo d’Inzeo's final score of 12 was still enough to win the gold, followed by his brother Piero and David Broome.

Competition format

The course was 840 metres long with 14 obstacles, including one double jump and one triple jump for a total of 17 jumps. The time limit was 2 minutes and 5 seconds; every second over the limit incurred a 0.25 point penalty. There were also penalties for obstacle faults. Each horse and rider pair completed the course twice, with the two scores summed to give a final total for ranking.

Results

60 riders competed, with 1 additional rider (A. Capuzzo of Italy) entered but not starting.[2]
