Polo has always had a somewhat royal and glamorous aura about it. Polo players are a bundle of charm,
and if there was any doubt left, this player removed it all. His dad bought him a horse at the age of six; he played Junior World Cup in Columbia in 1995 at the age of eleven. We are talking about the Hyderabad
based player Shamsher Ali, who holds a +7 handicap-the highest held by an Indian player. |

One of the rising stars of our first generation of professional polo players, Dhruv Pal Godara, 24 years old, with a mischievous twinkle in his eye, smiles and says," I grew up watching my elder brother, Manupal,
play polo and I was very jealous of him. Whatever he did, I wanted to do better; he has been my idol and
my biggest supporter. We fight like mad on the ground, but we have an understanding, that surprises everyone. We help each other out and complement each other." |
