Highly anticipated, the Emaar Masters Cup 2020 kicks off on 11 February at Dubai Polo & Equestrian Club. The action packed tournament will see prestigious polo teams battling it out for the entire week, with the finals set to take place on Saturday, 15 February. The club, with the support of the Dubai Sports Council, will reward tournament finalists a cash prize of Dh120,000. Details of the tournament were revealed during a press conference last week. The event was attended by Chris Newman, CEO of Emaar Hospitality Group, Khalid Essa Al Jayassi, director of Emaar Leisure Clubs, and Lisa Matthews, general manager of Dubai Polo & Equestrian Club.
The Emaar Masters Cup 2020 is a medium goal polo tournament played by prominent members of the royal family, including HH Sheikh Falah bin Zayed Al Nahyan’s Ghantoot Polo, HH Sheikha Maitha bint Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum’s UAE Polo, Bangash Polo, Abu Dhabi Polo and Bin Drai Polo. Newman said: “Polo is said to be the ‘Sport of Kings’ and the prestigious game plays a significant role in diversifying Emaar’s portfolio of leisure and entertainment offerings. “We are delighted to be a part of the historic tournament and are very much looking forward to the Emaar Masters Cup 2020 finals.
