BREAKING: Prince Harry has sustained an injury to his hand while competing in the St. Regis World Snow Polo Championship in Aspen, Colorado, earlier today. According to a source, the Duke of Sussex was “clipped” by a mallet swung by a son of renowned polo player Nacho Figueras during the match, but remarkably, he continued to play despite the pain.
Witnesses report that Prince Harry, referred to as “Harry Wales” by the announcer, paused briefly to shake off the injury before remaining in the game. His team ultimately faced defeat, but the royal showed resilience, demonstrating his commitment to the sport he clearly loves.
Earlier reports confirm that Prince Harry’s participation in the tournament was unexpected, with insiders stating, “No one knew he was coming.” The royal had also played in a match the previous day, showcasing his longstanding passion for polo.

Notably absent from this trip is Prince Harry’s wife, Meghan Markle, who is not present at the Aspen events. Following the first game, Figueras and his wife Delfina attended the annual Snow Polo Disco at the Caviar Kaspia pop-up, drawing a host of celebrities including Oscar winner Mikey Madison, Coleman Domingo, Phoebe Dynevor, and Sailor Brinkley Cook.
As a veteran polo player, Prince Harry has participated in numerous charity matches and even produced a Netflix docuseries titled “Polo.” His latest appearance in Aspen not only adds to his sports portfolio but also highlights the ongoing interest in royal activities, particularly in the glamorous setting of snow polo.
