Nope, not pink. Whether you like dressage or not, or think it belongs in the Olympics or not, winning an Olympic gold medal 3x is a very impressive feat. It's not like her competitors just sit back and let her win it. There are a ton of hours that go into preparation, you need to have talent and dedication to get there.
