England’s dashing royal sportsman Prince Harry will finish off his official tour of the U.S. this month by playing in a charity polo match at Connecticut’s Greenwich Polo Club on May 15. The Royal Salute Sentebale Polo Cup will benefit Sentebale, the charity founded by the Prince in 2006 to improve healthcare and education for the children of Lesotho, Africa. Prince Harry will play on the Sentebale team sponsored by Land Rover along with Greenwich Polo Club owner Peter Brant, billionaire husband of Stephanie Seymour. Playing against Harry on the opposing team sponsored by St. Regis Hotels & Resorts will be Ralph Lauren model Nacho Figueras and Dawn Jones (wife of Tommy Lee Jones) and a top-ranked polo player.
High profile attendees at the prestigious match are set to include St. Regis Connoisseur Jason Wu, Elizabeth Olsen, Stephanie Seymour, Karolina Kurkova, Carolyn Murphy, Valentino and Torquhil Ian Campbell, the Duke of Argyll. Following The Sentebale Royal Salute Polo Cup in Connecticut, St. Regis will host its sixth annual St. Regis International Cup on May 18 at Cowdray Park Polo Club in the United Kingdom.
