Bruce Springsteen's daughter won a silver medal in the Tokyo Olympics in equestrian show jumping.
United States' Jessica Springsteen, riding Don Juan van de Donkhoeve, competes in a jump-off during the equestrian jumping team final at Equestrian Park in Tokyo at the 2020 Summer Olympics, Saturday, Aug. 7, 2021, in Tokyo, Japan. Jessica Springsteen, who won a silver medal as part of the U.S. show jumping team at the Tokyo Games three years ago, will not be headed back to the Olympics this summer.
But the Tokyo Games, dampened because of pandemic restrictions on spectators, left Springsteen wanting more. The New Jersey native was on track to make it, too. Springsteen was named one of the 10 athletes on the U.S. Jumping Team’s short list for the Olympics on April 10, a group that US Equestrian said in a press release was “chosen for continued observation.” Perhaps not coincidentally, her famous father — legendary rock musician Bruce Springsteen — left a two-week opening on his summer tour schedule that coincided with the Olympics.
Springsteen grew up on the 368-acre Stone Hill Farm in Colts Neck. She began taking riding lessons when she was 4 and competing in local shows a few years later, rising quickly in a sport where many of the competitors are in their 40s and 50s.
