Definition

polo: a hockey-like game played on horseback with long-handled mallets and a wooden ball noun
water polo: a team sport played in a swimming pool with a ball and two goals noun
Despite both containing the word "polo", there is no real connection between polo and water polo. And there are no horses involved in water polo!
  • "My horse has sprained his groin playing polo again!"
  • "We can hit a few balls on the driving range or even play polo."
  • "Xavier loved sports, particularly Water Polo, though he never understood how to get the horses in the swimming pool."
