The 2009 Global Champions Tour was the fourth edition of the Global Champions Tour (GCT), an international show jumping competition series. The series was primarily held in Europe, with one event and the final taking place outside the continent. Each competition offered a minimum prize fund of €285,000. All GCT events were classified as CSI 5*.
The competitions were held between May 2 and August 23, 2009. The final took place in Doha, Qatar, from November 11 to 15, 2009.[citation needed]
The winner of the 2009 Global Champions Tour Final was Michel Robert of France, riding Kellemoi de Pepita.[citation needed]
Competitions
[edit | edit source]
All events were held as two-round competitions against the clock, with a jump-off against the clock if required.[more detail needed]
The ranking of riders not qualifying for the jump-off was based on the number of penalties accumulated across both rounds, followed by the time recorded in the second round. Riders not qualifying for the second round were ranked according to their penalties and time in the first round, and were placed behind those who advanced to the second round.
