Did commentators just say gemma tatts is a man??

 

[JennBags]

Good luck Gemma Tattersall, best of the brits

 

[JennBags]

Classy clear by Toddy there!

I am going to be v unsporting and hope Gemma goes clear and the other two fall off.

Hehehe...me too

 

[teapot]

Come on Gemma!

 

[sasquatch]

has Michael Jung already won a glandslam?

didn't understand the comment of him being in for a chance at winning the grandslam again.

 

[Slightlyconfused]

Arctic Soul is just so gorgeous 😍😍😍

 

[Honey08]

I want Gemma to do well, but it would be such a shame if MJ didn't win the grand slam now, heck he even did Burghley with a broken leg.

 

[only_me]

that was a very classy round for gemma!

 

[Slightlyconfused]

Whoop whoop!!!!!!😘😍🙌🙌🙌

 

[Lexi_]

She rode that round absolutely beautifully. Woo!

 

[JennBags]

Yeah!! Brilliant calm quiet riding for a super clear, well done Gemma.

 

[Honey08]

I'm getting the impression she's gone clear!

Another one the selectors should be putting down.

 

[sasquatch]

Arctic Soul is going for a gallop now hehe

 

[teapot]

I want the grand slam to be won as it needs a boost in the sport, but if Mr Osholt could hit a few so Gemma can be second, that would be grand

 

[sasquatch]

Andreas Ostholt now

it's getting tense

 

[Honey08]

Hit a few so Beanie stays top ten.

 

[TheOldTrout]

Andreas Ostholt looks pleased.

 

[only_me]

How cross do you think michael jung would be if he lost the grandslam to a fellow german?

 

[JennBags]

Andreas was lucky there, rubbed fence 11 but it stayed, I thought it was down.

Michael Jung is in.

 

[Honey08]

Was Andreas clear then?

 

[Lexi_]

I'm getting the impression she's gone clear!

Another one the selectors should be putting down.

She's got to be in the team, surely. Selection's going to be interesting this year though!

 

[JennBags]

Was Andreas clear then?

Yep

 

[sasquatch]

Was Andreas clear then?

Yes, Michael Jung in now.

 

[only_me]

well done michael! World champ, euro champ & grand slam champion

 

[Lexi_]

Congrats Mr Jung!

 

[JennBags]

Well done MJ, finishes on his dressage score and gets the first German win for badminton as well as only the second person ever to get the Rolex Grandslam.

 

[Kadastorm]

Absolute masterclass there by MJ.
Huge congrats to Gemma as well.

 

[TheOldTrout]

Yes, though he rattled some, they stayed up.

 

[sasquatch]

well done michael! World champ, euro champ & grand slam champion

absolutely superb! very well deserved

 

[teapot]

Isn't he the first German winner of Badminton too, which is an incredible stat in itself.

ETS: being a pedant but he isn't the current World champ!
