Who’s number one in the world at the moment? None other than Kent Farrington of the USA of course!

The current top ten riders on the FEI world rankings perhaps come as no surprise… apart from the in form Italian Lorenzo De Luca who sits in the number two position. Lorenzo also leads the LGCT series this year, being the only rider to secure two Grand Prix victories at tour events. Could he go number one next month?
 
Without further ado, here are the world’s current top ten showjumpers:
