The Polo Blues in England
According to the Telegraph.co.uk the Brits are having their "most troubled season ever." The "awful events" sited include the following:
- Catherine Yates, the treasurer of Cambridge University's polo club, died from injuries she received playing Pony Club polo on August 3rd.
- Bryan Morrison, the former manager of rock band Pink Floyd, is in a coma from injuries he received playing chukkers in July.
- Swiss financier Urs Schwarzenbach broke some ribs in June.
- Later in June, Luke Tomlinson broke his pelvis.
- Members of the HPA lost their liability coverage because Howard Hipwood was forced to settle a ridiculous personal injury lawsuit for £5 million.
- British pros are pissed off at Argentine pros for taking "their" jobs.
Ms. Yates' death is only the second polo fatality in England since WWII. An investigation is underway.
