2000 World
Cup Finals
Judges and Their Cyber
Scores
The
distinguished panel of judges gathered for the Final consisted of
Francis Verbeek-Van Rooy (NED), Evi Eisenhardt (GER), Stephan Clarke (GBR),
Vicenzo Truppa (ITA) and Ernst Holtz (RSA). It was the British Stephan
Clarke who took up the role as president
of the jury, giving him the right to judge at C. The field of
competitors was of
extreme high quality with three out of four Dutch Olympic A-team riders.
The Germans sent out two of their A-team members. Isabell Werth and
Jurgen Wirths were the lucky ones. Holland was able to enter one extra
rider as it was the hosting country. The Dutch Equestrian Federation
selected Barbara Koot of Berkenhorst Dressage in De Oude
Tonghe, Holland, as she was the fourth most successful Dutch rider
during the qualifiers.
Cyber Judging
House
photographer Dirk Caremans took this lovely shot illustrating the way
international judging is done. While on national level a scribe notes
down all scores and comments, on the international turf computer
literate scribes are required. Only via this medium accurate and quick
scoring can be executed in order to give the audience and riders quick
access to results
