Argentina Sports Events
In Argentina, football leads as the national passion. Primera División is the top-tier football league, where clubs like Boca Juniors and River Plate have huge followings. The Superclásico, the derby between these two teams, stands as one of the most intense rivalries globally.
In basketball, the Liga Nacional de Básquet is the premier league, receiving considerable attention. Rugby union also garners a lot of interest, with the UAR (Unión Argentina de Rugby) organising the domestic top level, the Superliga Americana de Rugby, while the national team, Los Pumas, competes internationally.
Tennis and polo are also noteworthy, with Argentina producing top players in both sports. The Argentine Open Polo Championship is a pivotal event in international polo, while the ATP regularly hosts up to two annual tennis events in the country.
In motorsports, Turismo Carretera, a stock car racing series, is popular.
