Ingmar De Vos enjoyed a landslide victory in the election for role of president of the Fédération Equestre Internationale at the FEI General Assembly in Baku, Azerbaijan.
De Vos landed 98 votes of a possible 131. He only needed 88 to win outright at the first ballot. His nearest rival was France's Pierre Durand, the 1988 Olympic show jumping champion, who garnered 21 votes. De Vos has been serving as the Secretary General of the FEI since 2011.
There were only six votes each for Britain's John McEwen, who was vice-president to Haya, and for Swiss financier Pierre Genecand.
