Rolex Grand Slam of Show Jumping
Considered the most difficult trophy to obtain in the discipline, the Rolex Grand Slam of Show Jumping rewards the rider who manages to win the Grand Prix of three of the four Major show jumping competitions consecutively: The Dutch Masters in 's-Hertogenbosch, the CSIO Spruce Meadows 'Masters' in Calgary, the CHIO in Aachen and the CHI in Geneva. To date, Scotland's Scott Brash, a Rolex Testimonee, is the only rider to have accomplished this feat, in 2014-2015.

To date, the Scotsman Scott Brash, Rolex Testimonial, is the only one to have accomplished this feat, in 2014-2015.
Launched in 2013, the Rolex Grand Slam of Show Jumping initially consisted of the Majors in Aachen, Calgary, and Geneva. In 2018, The Dutch Masters joined this Grand Slam, which now includes two grass-court events, Aachen and Calgary, and two indoor events, Geneva and 's-Hertogenbosch.
Founded in 1967 and held in the medieval town of Den Bosch, The Dutch Masters attracts the world's elite. This event combines the best of show jumping with the quintessence of dressage. It is considered the leading indoor equestrian circuit in the Netherlands. Since 2014, Rolex has been the Main Sponsor and Title Sponsor of The Dutch Masters Grand Prix. The 2024 edition takes place from March 7 to 10, culminating in Sunday's Rolex Grand Prix, the first major show jumping competition of the year, which counts towards the Rolex Grand Slam of Show Jumping. Testimonee Daniel Deusser has already won this event twice, in 2015 and 2022.
Within the famous Soers complex, competitors and spectators take part in the CHIO Aachen in a vibrant atmosphere. Show jumping, dressage, eventing, vaulting, and even carriage driving—the world's elite gather at the beginning of summer to offer the public a unique experience. Aachen is a model of equestrian tradition and excellence, which Rolex has championed for over twenty years.
The spectacular setting of the CSIO Spruce Meadows 'Masters', located in Calgary, Canada, echoes the demands of its course where the best show jumping riders and horses on the planet compete. Rolex has the honor of being Official Sponsor of this event considered by enthusiasts as the benchmark horse show in North America and Presenting Sponsor of the CPKC 'International' Grand Prix, counting towards the Rolex Grand Slam of Show Jumping.
For almost thirty years, Rolex has been Presenting Sponsor of the CHI Geneva, one of the most prestigious equestrian competitions in the world. This event brings together exceptional riders within the largest indoor track in the world. Also known as the Concours Hippique International de Genève, it was created in 1926. In 2019, it was voted best indoor show jumping competition, for the tenth time, and best indoor cross event, for the first times, by the illustrious magazine L'Année Hippique, according to the votes of riders, journalists and personalities from the equestrian world. The Rolex Grand Prix and the Rolex International Jumping Riders Club (IJRC) Top 10 Final are among the highlights of the competition.
