Cubaplus strikes back with PL's poll

Cubaplus got it right, once again... Our candidates finally won the 54th edition of the Prensa Latina Sports Poll that awards the best Latin American and Caribbean athletes of 2017.

This year, the individual winners were Venezuelan Major League Baseball star Jose Altuve (Best Male Athlete) and triple jumper Yulimar Rojas (Best Female Athlete). The Brazilian male national soccer team was selected as Best Team of the Year. Just as we predicted...

A total of 117 press media from 21 countries took part in this year's survey. Cuba led the voting with 30 press media, followed by Peru (19), El Salvador (16), Chile (8), Bolivia, Mexico and Venezuela (6), France (4), Argentina and Dominican Republic (3), China, Ecuador, Colombia and Panama (2) and 1 from Brazil, Canada, Guatemala, Vietnam, Italy, Great Britain, Nicaragua and Uruguay.
