"The son of Princess Diya Kumari and Maharaja Narendra Singh, Maharaja Sawai Padmanabh Singh, the member of the erstwhile royal family of Jaipur has recently become the youngest ever polo player to represent India in a World Cup tourney scheduled to be held in Iran from June 29.

He shares that as an adolescent, he would accompany his late grandfather Maharaja Sawai Bhawani Singhji of Jaipur to the polo grounds every season. The 19-year-old recalls, “My late grandfather used to host the Jaipur season at Rambagh Polo Club twice every year. So every day of those months, I would watch several international as well as national players play.”

Padmanabh has studied at Millfield School in London where he excelled in polo. But it was only the week after his grandfather passed away in 2011, that he picked up the mallet, competing at the age of 15 in his first polo game in England. "
