Zara Phillips Makes Olympic Equestrian Debut


Following Queen Elizabeth II's appearance at the Olympics opening ceremony, the royals were back in full force at the games Sunday, watching the Queen's granddaughter, Zara Phillips compete in the Dressage portion of the equestrian event competition at Greenwich Park.

"To be here at home is an amazing feeling, and you just want to try and do your best for the team," Phillips told the Washington Post.



Although the Queen was missing in action this go round, her husband Prince Philip was on hand to watch Zara compete, as was Zara's mother Princess Anne.

Zara will return to the competition Monday for the Cross Country event, which Phillips's cousin, Prince William, and Kate Middleton are expected to attend, according to People.
