Why is Argentina considered the Polo Capital of the world?

Among the reasons why Argentina is considered the polo capital of the world is because it has 10 of the 12 best polo players in the world, who have not lost to another country since 1932.

Adolfo Cambiaso is the No. 1 polo player and he is Argentinian. He plays with a handicap of 10 goals in Argentina, USA and UK. He is also ranked as the youngest player to receive the highest handicap, in 1994.

In addition to having the best players in the world, the country also has the ideal scenario to practice this sport:

First, the Argentine pampas are flat lands with an ideal climate.

Secondly, the pampas are also perfect for breeding and training polo horses, another key to Argentina’s distinguished position in the polo world.

All these characteristics are key to Argentina’s distinguished position in the world of this elite sport.
