Phillips attended Beaudesert Park School in
Equestrianism
After university, Phillips began to pursue an equestrian career, in the footsteps of her parents. In June 2003, she announced that she had secured a sponsorship deal with Cantor Index, a leading company in spread betting, to help cover the costs of her equestrian career.[7] She finished as runner-up at Burghley Horse Trials in 2003 in her first four-star event.[8] Tindall missed the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens after her horse suffered an injury during training.[9]
Riding her horse
The British Olympic Association announced that Tindall would ride Toytown for the British equestrian team at the Beijing Olympic Games 2008 in Hong Kong.[15] However, Toytown was injured during training and she was forced to withdraw from the team.[16]
On 25 October 2008, Tindall fell from her horse, Tsunami II, at the 15th fence of a cross-country event at Pau, France, and broke her right collarbone. The horse broke her neck after she tipped over the hedge and was put down.[17] In 2009, Tindall announced she was designing her own range of equestrian clothing for Musto Outdoor Clothing.[18][19] The range is named ZP176 after the team number she was given when she first represented her country. The range was officially launched in July 2010.[20]
On 11 June 2012, Tindall was announced as a member of the British Equestrian team for the 2012 London Olympic Games.[21] She competed in the Olympics on High Kingdom and won a silver medal in the team event. Her mother, Princess Anne, presented her medal.[22] Tindall finished second at Luhmühlen Horse Trials 2013, on her top horse High Kingdom.[23] At the World Equestrian Games in 2014, Tindall and High Kingdom were part of the British team that won team silver.[24]
Tindall stopped using her maiden name, Phillips, in March 2016. She competed for the first time as Zara Tindall during her unsuccessful attempt to qualify for the 2016 Rio Olympic Games.[25] In 2017, she won the third place at the Kentucky Three-Day Event on High Kingdom, before High Kingdom retired from the sport in 2018.[26][27] In November 2019, she was appointed to the non-executive role of director of the Cheltenham Racecourse and began her role in January 2020.[28] In August 2020, Tindall was selected for her first appearance on the British Team competing at the prestigious FEI Nations Cup in Le Pin au Haras, France.[29] In October 2021, Tindall competed in Maryland 5 Star at Fair Hill and finished at 11th place with score 30.4, riding Gleadhill House Stud Ltd's 12-year-old horse named Class Affair.[30] In May 2022, Tindall won the advanced class at the Chatsworth Horse Trials, riding Class Affair.[31]
Charity work
Tindall frequently supports and attends events for various charitable causes, mainly revolving around spinal injuries, equestrianism, and children's causes. In 2005, she auctioned one of her evening gowns, worn at the London premiere of the film Seabiscuit, to raise money for tsunami relief. She also undertook a visit to New Zealand in her role as patron of The Catwalk Trust.[32][33] From 1998 to 2005, she served as the president of Club 16–24, a group which encourages young people to take an interest in racing.[34] She is associated with Inspire, a Salisbury-based medical research charity which helps to improve the quality of life of people with spinal cord injuries. She is patron of Lucy Air Ambulance for Children,[35] which is the UK's first dedicated air transfer service to fly critically ill infants and children to hospitals for urgent care.

Other activities
In June 2015, Tindall launched a line of jewellery collection, named "Zara Phillips Collection", in collaboration with Australian designer John Calleija.[42] The equestrian themed collection featured the Saddle Suite and the Coronet Suite, with the prices ranging from $6,250 to $44,000.[43][44]
On 17 September 2022, during the period of official mourning for Queen Elizabeth II, Tindall joined her brother and six cousins, to mount a 15-minute vigil, around the coffin of the Queen, as it lay in state at Westminster Hall.[45] On 19 September, with her husband Mike and daughter Mia, she joined other family members at the state funeral.[46]
