The New Year brings the start of a new polo season here in Wellington, which brings world-class athletes from around the globe to compete in “the sport of kings.” Along with the action — horse and rider pairs flying down perfectly manicured fields, all eyes on the goal — is a whole other set of entertainment, whether it is people watching, high fashion, tailgating, the halftime divot stomp, a luxurious Sunday brunch and more. The International Polo Club Palm Beach attracts the world’s top talent to play in its annual winter high-goal season. Once again, IPC is the place to see the high-goal action, but this year, Gladiator Polo also brings top arena polo action to Wellington. As we do each January, Wellington The Magazine is highlighting just a small handful of the amazing athletes you will see vying for top polo accolades this season.
