He won two individual gold medals in that event, the first in 1952 at Helsinki and the second twelve years later in 1964 at Tokyo. Jonquères d’Oriola did compete in 1956 and 1960 but with less success. In 1966 he also won the World Championships in individual show jumping, making him one of three men (the others being <a href="/athletes/13010">Hans Günter Winkler</a> [GER] and <a href="/athletes/11887">Raimondo D’Inzeo</a> [ITA]) to have won three individual world or Olympic titles in that discipline. Jonquères d’Oriola also won Olympic silver in 1964 and 1968 as a member of the French team.</p> </div> <h2>Results</h2> <table class='table'> <thead> <tr> <th>Games</th> <th>Discipline (Sport) / Event</th> <th>NOC / Team</th> <th>Pos</th> <th>Medal</th> <th>As</th> <th></th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr class='active'> <td> <a href="/editions/13">1952 Summer Olympics</a> </td> <td><a href="/sports/EJP">Equestrian Jumping</a> (<a href="/sport_groups/EQ">Equestrian</a>)</td> <td><a href="/countries/FRA"><img style="padding-right: 2px; vertical-align: middle" src="https://olympedia-flags.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/FRA.png" />FRA</a></td> <td></td> <td></td> <td>Pierre Jonquères d'Oriola</td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> <td> <a href="/results/185147">Individual, Men</a> <small>(Olympic)</small> </td> <td><i><a href="/horses/72">Ali Baba</a></i></td> <td>1</td> <td><span class="Gold">Gold</span></td> <td></td> <td></td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> <td> <a href="/results/185150">Team, Men</a> <small>(Olympic)</small> </td> <td><i><a href="/horses/72">Ali Baba</a></i> / France</td> <td>5</td> <td></td> <td></td> <td></td> </tr> <tr class='active'> <td> <a href="/editions/48">1956 Equestrian Olympics</a> </td> <td><a href="/sports/EJP">Equestrian Jumping</a> (<a href="/sport_groups/EQ">Equestrian</a>)</td> <td><a href="/countries/FRA"><img style="padding-right: 2px; vertical-align: middle" src="https://olympedia-flags.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/FRA.png" />FRA</a></td> <td></td> <td></td> <td>Pierre Jonquères d'Oriola</td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> <td> <a href="/results/185170">Individual, Open</a> <small>(Olympic)</small> </td> <td><i><a href="/horses/2632">Voulette</a></i></td> <td>6</td> <td></td> <td></td> <td></td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> <td> <a href="/results/185173">Team, Open</a> <small>(Olympic)</small> </td> <td><i><a href="/horses/2632">Voulette</a></i> / France</td> <td>8</td> <td></td> <td></td> <td></td> </tr> <tr class='active'> <td> <a href="/editions/15">1960 Summer Olympics</a> </td> <td><a href="/sports/EJP">Equestrian Jumping</a> (<a href="/sport_groups/EQ">Equestrian</a>)</td> <td><a href="/countries/FRA"><img style="padding-right: 2px; vertical-align: middle" src="https://olympedia-flags.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/FRA.png" />FRA</a></td> <td></td> <td></td> <td>Pierre Jonquères d'Oriola</td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> <td> <a href="/results/185195">Individual, Open</a> <small>(Olympic)</small> </td> <td><i><a href="/horses/724">Eclair au Chocolat</a></i></td> <td>18</td> <td></td> <td></td> <td></td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> <td> <a href="/results/185198">Team, Open</a> <small>(Olympic)</small> </td> <td><i><a href="/horses/724">Eclair au Chocolat</a></i> / France</td> <td>5</td> <td></td> <td></td> <td></td> </tr> <tr class='active'> <td> <a href="/editions/16">1964 Summer Olympics</a> </td> <td><a href="/sports/EJP">Equestrian Jumping</a> (<a href="/sport_groups/EQ">Equestrian</a>)</td> <td><a href="/countries/FRA"><img style="padding-right: 2px; vertical-align: middle" src="https://olympedia-flags.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/FRA.png" />FRA</a></td> <td></td> <td></td> <td>Pierre Jonquères d'Oriola</td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> <td> <a href="/results/185215">Individual, Open</a> <small>(Olympic)</small> </td> <td><i><a href="/horses/1521">Lutteur</a></i></td> <td>1</td> <td><span class="Gold">Gold</span></td> <td></td> <td></td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> <td> <a href="/results/185218">Team, Open</a> <small>(Olympic)</small> </td> <td><i><a href="/horses/1521">Lutteur</a></i> / France</td> <td>2</td> <td><span class="Silver">Silver</span></td> <td></td> <td></td> </tr> <tr class='active'> <td> <a href="/editions/17">1968 Summer Olympics</a> </td> <td><a href="/sports/EJP">Equestrian Jumping</a> (<a href="/sport_groups/EQ">Equestrian</a>)</td> <td><a href="/countries/FRA"><img style="padding-right: 2px; vertical-align: middle" src="https://olympedia-flags.s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/FRA.png" />FRA</a></td> <td></td> <td></td> <td>Pierre Jonquères d'Oriola</td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> <td> <a href="/results/185235">Individual, Open</a> <small>(Olympic)</small> </td> <td><i><a href="/horses/1735">Nagir</a></i></td> <td>17</td> <td></td> <td></td> <td></td> </tr> <tr> <td></td> <td> <a href="/results/185238">Team, Open</a> <small>(Olympic)</small> </td> <td><i><a href="/horses/1735">Nagir</a></i> / France</td> <td>2</td> <td><span class="Silver">Silver</span></td> <td></td> <td></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <h2>Olympic family relations</h2> <ul> <li> Cousin of <a href="/athletes/21837">Christian d'Oriola</a> </li> </ul> </div> </body> <footer class='footer'> <br> <div class='panel panel-info'> <div class='panel-heading'> <h3 class='panel-title'> <span class='glyphicon glyphicon-info-sign'></span> Did you know?
