Richard Mille partner Mac Donough wins in Palmero
Richard Mille is pleased to share the success of their partner Pablo Mac Donough after his victory in Palmero (Argentina), the most prestigious tournament in the world.
POLO: RICHARD MILLE WINNER AGAIN WITH PABLO MAC DONOUGH
Saturday, 12th December was an exceptional day in the world of polo. Pablo Mac Donough’s team, La Dolfina, entered the history books after winning the final, the Triple Crown, for the third year running. Unbeaten in three years and 35 matches, La Dolfina has now surpassed the record that was set forty years ago.
Lead by Adolfo Cambiaso, La Dolfina came up against Ellerstina, just as they did a year ago in the same final on the very same field. The tension between both teams was palpable from the outset, with players on either side battling it out to secure the first point in a very offensive match. La Dolfina was the first to score thanks to some remarkable teamwork from Cambiaso and Stirling. La Dolfina kept its advantage over its rivals, leading 9-4 at the end of the fifth chukker. Just when the match seemed to be a foregone conclusion, Ellertstina managed to get back into the game and it looked as though the situation was about to change dramatically! However, not in the least intimidated, La Dolfina, backed by the talented Juan Martin Nero and Pablo Mac Donough, kept their eyes on the prize. Both teams displayed great determination, but the desire for victory driving Pablo and his team enabled them to win the final 13-12 in the eighth chukker.
Richard Mille would like to congratulate La Dolfina, and their friend Pablo Mac Donough in particular, on the outstanding performance that enabled them to bring this honorary trophy home. As usual, Pablo wore the RM 053 Tourbillon watch at this historic tournament. With a barrel-shaped microblasted titanium and titanium carbide case, specifically designed to withstand the extreme impacts inflicted during matches, this watch made by Richard Mille and in collaboration with Pablo Mac Donough is a rugged companion for every competition.
