The Santa María Polo Club's summer season came to an end on Sunday, August 28th at its Sotogrande premises, as this was the final day of the hugely successful 40th Torneo Internacional BMW de Polo.
Marchiopolo and Santa Quiteria claimed the low- and high-handicap championships, respectively. Marchiopolo defeated Sotovila 8-7, and Santa Quiteria also had a narrow, 10-9, victory against Anaconda Esperanza.
Turning to the subsidiary cups of each of these two divisions, Seguriber defeated El Cañal 10-8 in the low-handicap final, while John Smith defeated El Rosario Leones 14-9 in the medium-handicap one.
