The Gauntlet of Polo, historically known as the American Triple Crown, is set for its second edition after a very successful debut in 2019, which saw Pilot crowned super champions.

In 2020, fourteen 22-goal teams will partake in the three competitions, which each awards its own monetary prize: CV Whitney Cup ($125,000), USPA Gold Cup ($125,000) and the US Open Polo Championship ($250,000). If one team should win all three tournaments, they will be awarded a total prize of one million dollars.
