The world of polo — like many equestrian sports — has earned a reputation as a rarefied one, dripping with glamour and wealth. On the field, however, the game is about perseverance and grit, as two teams of four players on horseback battle it out to score as many goals as they can. 

While many of us won’t get the chance to see a match played in person, the new Netflix sports series Polo takes you along with the world’s greatest players as they gather in Wellington, Florida, for the famous US Open Polo Championship. From Archewell Productions and Boardwalk Pictures, the series is also executive produced by Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

“This series offers audiences an unprecedented, behind-the-scenes look into the passion and determination driving some of the world’s elite polo players, revealing the grit behind the glamour,” says Prince Harry of the high-octane series. “We’re proud to showcase the true depth and spirit of the sport — and the intensity of its high-stakes moments.”

Who is featured in Polo?

  • Adolfo Cambiaso, team Valiente: Cambiaso is widely regarded as one of the greatest polo players of all time. With a career spanning over three decades, he’s amassed numerous championships, including the Argentine Open and the US Open Polo Championship. The 2024 US Open is particularly special as Cambiaso faces his son, Poroto Cambiaso, in their first high-goal final against each other on American soil.
  • Poroto Cambiaso, team La Dolfina: Known for his exceptional talent, Poroto is an emerging polo star and the son of legendary Adolfo Cambiaso. At just 17 years old, Poroto became the youngest player ever to achieve a 10-goal handicap. 
  • Louis Devaleix, team La Fe: Devaleix only started playing in 2020 at the age of 38 and, despite his recent entry into the sport, he won the notable East Coast Open in 2022. Devaleix is married to Pamela Flanagan Devaleix, a US Open champion polo player, and the couple is expecting their first child together throughout the course of the series. 
  • Timmy Dutta, team Dutta Corp: A talented young player, Dutta works hard to earn the respect and recognition of his tough-love father and team owner, “Big Tim Dutta.” Timmy Dutta takes his commitment to the sport seriously, prioritizing the barn and training over his social life. 
  • Keko Magrini, team Coca-Cola: Emerging on the scene at 16 years old in 2021, Magrini continued his exceptional play into early 2022, winning the inaugural US Junior Open. Magrini is often supported by his father, Matias Magrini, and his brother, Santino, forming a dynamic intergenerational trio of polo players. Along with Timmy Dutta and Poroto Cambiaso, Keko Magrini is the new generation of the sport. They all bring to each match sharper skills and more fearless risk-taking than what came before.
  • Nacho Figueras: Figueras, who’s featured in the series as an expert and also serves as consulting producer, is a renowned Argentine polo player, model, and philanthropist, with numerous victories under his belt. 

    Polo premieres globally on Netflix on Dec. 10.
