Anky van Grunsven

Anky van Grunsven, Netherlands
In the women's equestrian world, Anky van Grunsven is almost a God. She has dominated international competition, being named World Cup Dressage Champion eight times. She also boasts three consecutive Olympic gold medals in individual dressage, and is a favorite to four-peat in 2012. Van Grunsven is married to Dutch national equestrian coach Sjef Janssen, and they have two children. I think it's safe to say those kids will be riding horses from an early age. [Photo via]
