For Skelton, Friday marked the second time he won an Olympic medal, but it was his first as an individual. He previously won team gold in jumping at the 2012 London Games for Great Britain.

Perhaps the most impressive aspect of Skelton's win is that he is 58 years old, which made him the oldest British Olympic medalist in more than a century, according to Gordon Rayner of the Daily Telegraph:

Sweden's Fredricson won his first Olympic medal by taking silver, while Lamaze became a three-time Olympic medalist with his bronze.

Lamaze won gold in individual jumping and silver in team jumping at the 2008 Summer Games in Beijing. By virtue of Friday's bronze, he reached a class by himself in Canadian equestrian, per Team Canada PR:

After already winning three equestrian medals at the 2016 Olympics, Team USA had a chance to add another to its haul with Kent Farrington and McLain Ward each reaching the final.

Ward finished in a tie for ninth, while Farrington made it to the six-rider jump-off by virtue of nailing every jump in the final round.

Farrington struggled in the jump-off, however, as he incurred eight penalties and finished fifth out of six participants.

The first-time Olympian won't go home empty-handed, though, since he was part of the United States jumping team that won silver.
