Piaget is ready for British Open

Piaget polo Gold Cup Team wins match

The British Open started at Cowdray Park on 22 June and will end on 18 July. The Piaget polo team, led by Marcos Heguy, the Swiss watchmaker’s ambassador to the polo world, was busy preparing to compete in the United Kingdom’s premier high-goal tournament, the British Open Championship for the Veuve Clicquot Gold Cup, after a successful run in their first outing in English polo.

The Piaget team, formed to celebrate this summer’s opening of Piaget’s new boutique in London’s New Bond Street, is one of 20 teams in contention for the coveted Gold Cup at Cowdray Park Polo Club. This event, drawing players from a dozen or more countries, ranks with the Argentina and US opens as one of the sport’s top competitions.

Marcos Heguy and his brother Bautista combined brilliantly last Saturday (June 26) to give the Piaget polo team their first victory in the British Open Championship for the Veuve Clicquot Gold Cup, defeating Billingbear Park by nine goals to six.

Piaget took an early lead and held it for the first two chukkas, but the game was tied up at halftime. Piaget regained the advantage again in the fourth period and kept it through the fifth and sixth chukkas to win the game by a comfortable margin.

Piaget next play Les Lions II on Sunday, 4 July.
