Justo San Miguel

Equestrian Sports

Justo San Miguel (5 July 1870 to 2 June 1947) was a Spanish polo player who competed in the polo tournament at the 1924 Summer Olympics. The English Wikipedia article on him is a one-paragraph stub that gives only his dates and that Olympic appearance, so this entry keeps to those facts. Polo is a mounted team sport in which riders strike a ball with long-handled mallets, and the 1924 Olympic tournament was one of the few times it formed part of the Games. He is recorded as a participant in that tournament; the sources read for this entry do not credit him with a medal.
