Greatest Polo Player Ever Versus Best Polo Player Ever

Last year the discussion of the greatest polo player of all time was presented here on PCW.I would contend that the essential difference between “Greatest” and “Best” has to do with winning and dominance in its own time. We will never be able to see two players of different eras play against each other while at their best, so that relative strengths are left much to supposition. We can assert that a particular athlete of today is a better physical specimen that another player of yesteryear, but…See More

Dear MC,

I didn't know that there is a online version of the full book.

Thank you for the information.

Your wooden horses are a nice colection of pictures. I really like it.

But back to yiur question about a list of 10 goal players.

What do you mean? if you'll call for example Eduardo Novillo Astrada or Juan Martin Nero as british citizens (both nationalitys), than England has 10 goal players if not, the best handicap british ever had have been 9 goals from the Hipwood brothers!!! so far as I know.

:-)  Sandra
