An afternoon of polo is about more than what happens during the match. It is also about the rituals, the atmosphere around the field, and the moments that are part of the experience of the sport.
That was the spirit of the friendly match between St. Regis Cap Cana and Barceló Imperial at the Los Establos polo field, which ended in an 8–8 tie. The day opened with the ceremonial throw-in by Laura Santoni, General Manager of St. Regis Cap Cana, and continued with a closely contested match that stayed tight until the end.
St. Regis brought one of its signature traditions to the field: sabrage, the ceremonial opening of a bottle of champagne with a saber, followed by a toast for the guests.
