This week we are delighted to be collaborating with Rolex ahead of next week's Spruce Meadows Masters and welcome Linda Southern-Heathcott, President and CEO from Spruce Meadows, Canada. Spruce Meadows is wholly owned and operated by the Southern Family. Founded by Linda's father Ron Southern with the dream of creating a unique environment of "good friendship, good commerce, and good sport". This concept and remarkable venue has been accomplished by a committed group of corporations, volunteers, media, athletes, staff, fans, and officials.  Spruce Meadows is committed to being the leading venue in the world for international horse sports with a focus on the organisation and hosting of show jumping events of unmatched quality for junior, amateur, and professional athletes in a manner that reflects basic family values in a clean, green and welcoming environment that celebrates the horse and encourages the breeding and training of quality sport horses and the teaching and development of athletes. We discuss the values of Spruce Meadows and the longevity of their valued sponsors, the input and support from Rolex and the what their Grand Slam brings to Spruce Meadows.  Linda reflects on many memorable moments including Scott Brash becoming the first and still the only rider to win the Rolex Grand Slam in September 2015 on board the iconic Hello Sanctos, to claim the €1,000,000 bonus. Scott started his Rolex Grand Slam of Showjumping campaign by winning the Rolex Grand Prix at CHI Geneva in December 2014, the following May he went onto claim Rolex Grand Prix at CHIO Aachen,  with the third and final instalment winning the CP International presented by Rolex at the Spruce Meadows Masters. Sadly spectators are not permitted at this year's event but you can catch all of the action via their livestream, to watch click https://iframe.dacast.com/playlist/2c3ae134f33af73ec3ef1b46f415c022/a5f8cceb-0f7f-20ed-d242-f4dbfe2c55ac   ---   Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/the-full-course-showjumpi/message
