The Polo Club du Domaine de Chantilly, set at La Ferme d’Apremont, close to Paris, France, hosted the final of the PGH Cup, the tournament which is a tribute of the club’s founder, Patrick Guerrand Hermes, on a rainy Sunday May 17, in front of packed grandsstands, who enjoyed a very good game of polo.

 

Audaz and Rinidia Hunt & Polo played a thrilling and vibrant match, that reached the penultimate chukka a 5-all. But the pouring rain didn’t stop Audaz, who were determined and solid enough to produce four consecutive goals in the last chukka to claim the 9-5 win and lift the PGH Cup. And although Come Dubois was named MVP, it’s worth to notice the remarkable job made by Brieuc Rigaux, Jota Chavanne and Nicolás Constant, who were crucial to Audaz’s win.
