Mother Nature's record-breaking wrath of heat and humidity did not befall the Bridgehampton Polo Club's signature event, this weekend. Yes it was hot and as a result, the 2011 Bridgehampton Polo Challenge began an hour late, as social needs were foregone for equestrian safety. However, droves of families, tailgaters, notables and athletes took to the fields.
Polo is as much a family outting at a refined sporting event, as it is a social gathering.
Beautiful people casually soak up sun and champagne along the sidelines, while children are allowed to frolic on the field, before the match!
The event runs every Saturday, through August 27. General Admission parking is the only fee, at a whopping $20.
Two notes on Two Trees Farm:
When spyehampton asked Sir Ivan what he thought of the Polo Challenge he replied simply, "Loved it"
Nacho Figueras is still riding like a champion
