The Maserati Silver Cup Final of 46° Torneo Internacional de Polo Sotogrande saw Lechuza Caracas Polo Team winning over Las Dos Lunas A&G Private Bank by 10 to 8. The Maserati Silver Cup is the second of three high handicap trophies to be awarded during the 46th International Polo Tournament in Sotogrande, held at the iconic Santa Maria Polo Club.
Venezuelan businessman and Lechuza Caracas patron Victor Vargas was awarded the best player trophy, while Marquita was named the best pony. David Stirling (Lechuza Caracas) said after the game: “It was a very hard match, but we were expecting that. Dos Lunas is a really strong team and they had played a fantastic tournament so far, winning a complicated semifinal. But we started well, putting ourselves ahead from the start, and even if they were always close, we managed to keep the lead. We are very happy to hold the Silver Cup in our hands and we look forward to the rest of the tournament.”
The 46th International Polo Tournament in Sotogrande is the third Grand Slam polo event of the year: the high competitive value that distinguishes it, attracts the best players and the best teams in the world. The Sotogrande tournament is the fourth stage of the Maserati Polo Tour 2017 in collaboration with La Martina, after St Moritz, Dubai and Beaufort in the UK.
Of the four locations in the Maserati Polo Tour, Sotogrande represents the most iconic summer Polo event. The Sotogrande polo has a Vanisé knitted collar with a shiny under collar, personalised buttons, lurex embroideries and Alcantara applications on the sleeve. The back of the shirt features a geometric print inspired by the map of Spain and emphasises the connection to the Iberian Peninsula.
