Argentina has won more international polo tournaments than any other country, and the Argentine Open Championship, held late November through early December, is the world's most important polo event. There are two seasons for polo: March through May and September through December, held at the Campo Argentino de Polo, Avenida del Libertador and Avenida Dorrego (tel. 11/4576-5600). Tickets can be purchased at the gate. Contact the Asociación Argentina de Polo, Hipólito Yrigoyen 636 (tel. 11/4331-4646 or 11/4342-8321), for information on polo schools and events. La Martina Polo Ranch (tel. 11/4576-7997), located 37 miles (60km) from Buenos Aires near the town of Vicente Casares, houses more than 80 polo horses, as well as a guesthouse with a swimming pool and tennis courts.
