If there is someone who successfully helped drive polo forward from a commercial perspective—making it known in more parts of the world and encouraging new players and patrons to get involved in the sport—it is Nacho Figueras, the force behind so many events held in major cities across different countries. On this occasion, the polo player and model is in the desert of AlUla, located in Saudi Arabia, taking part in a new edition of the AlUla Desert Polo.

After the first day of matches, the Argentine spoke with Pololine and shared how the idea of these events first began and what motivated him to pursue it. He also spoke about the exponential growth of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, not only AlUla.
