The Philippine Star
|August 15, 2025
World-ranked polo player Mikee Romero produced what he termed as one of his "beautiful and courageous" shots as he helped power his team — GlobalPort-Passion For Polo to a stunning 11-10 win over defending champion Flying Changes in the 2025 USPA Midwest Open on Monday at the Las Brisas Polo Club in Chicago, Illinois.

 Facing the prospect of another painful defeat, Romero, ranked No. 24 in the world with 110 World Polo Tour points, rose to the occasion and delivered the game-changer with an incredible show of speed and bravery to highlight the team's remarkable come-from-behind win.
"One of my best shots ever," said the former lawmaker, who gained recognition after GlobalPort's historic debut at the 2025 Gauntlet of Polo, often referred to as the Olympics of polo.
