Bruce Springsteen's daughter to compete in Tokyo Olympics as part of US show jumping team
Bruce Springsteen's daughter Jessica will compete in the Tokyo Olympics next month as part of the US show jumping team.
Jessica Springsteen is currently ranked 27th in the world in show jumping, and earlier this week she was confirmed to compete in the equestrian events at the Tokyo Olympics as part of the US show jumping team.
Springsteen's daughter was seeemingly "Born To Ride", as AV Club reports The Boss' second-eldest child started riding horses aged four at their family farm in Colts Neck, New Jersey.
The US show jumping team will also consist of Kent Farrington, Laura Kraut and McLain Ward. Jessica Springsteen will compete at the Tokyo Olympics with her 12-year-old horse Don Juan van de Donkhoeve.
She wrote of the announcement on Instagram, "Been dreaming of this since I can remember! Endless gratitude for my team, friends and family for helping me make this a reality. We are Tokyo bound!! Honored to be a part of this team with Laura Kraut Kent Farrington and McLain Ward. There’s no horse in the world I’d rather be on this journey with, thank you Don! You’re my horse of a lifetime. Let’s go USA!"
