How to remove whitespaces at certain sections of a text in Python?

I have a text which looks like below     

        High     MM Pol Ag to SO Pol Ag

As you can see, there is a whitespace in the beginning, then a word and again some whitespace and then the rest of the text.

What I want is this piece of text MM Pol Ag to SO Pol Ag.

Now I can use strip to remove the leading and ending whitespaces like below.

text = text.strip()

High     MM Pol Ag to SO Pol Ag

But the white space after High is varying ie it can sometimes be two spaces or four or maybe more.

How can I get the required text?

Note: The text can vary.

>Solution :

You can split your string to remove spaces, then reconstruct it ignoring the first word:

>>> text = "        High     MM Pol Ag to SO Pol Ag"
>>> " ".join(text.split()[1:])
'MM Pol Ag to SO Pol Ag'

or, using a regex

>>> import re
>>> re.match("^\s*\w*\s*(.*)", text).group(1)
'MM Pol Ag to SO Pol Ag'
