Charlotte Dujardin Pulls Out of Paris Olympics After Sponsors Drop Her
Disgraced Olympian's Conduct Leads to Withdrawal
Shocking News Shakes Dressage World
In a stunning turn of events, six-time Olympic medalist Charlotte Dujardin has pulled out of the upcoming Paris Olympics after footage emerged showing her engaged in conduct that violates the rules of her sport.
The news has sent shockwaves through the equestrian world, as Dujardin was one of the favorites to win gold in dressage at the Games.
Two of Dujardin's major sponsors, equestrian insurance company KBIS and Danish equestrian equipment company Equine LTS, have already dropped her from their rosters.
Dujardin, who also won two golds at the World Equestrian Games in 2014 in Normandy, said she was "devastated" by the decision to withdraw from the Olympics.
"I am truly sorry for the disappointment and let down that I have caused to my supporters, my team, and to the sport of dressage," Dujardin said in a statement.
The footage that led to Dujardin's withdrawal has not been released, but it is reportedly consistent with the offenses that have been alleged against her.
Dujardin is one of the most successful dressage riders in history, and her withdrawal from the Paris Olympics is a major blow to the sport.
