South Africa win Hong Kong Sevens

The 50th anniversary of the Hong Kong Sevens concluded in front of a record-breaking crowd at Kai Tak Stadium.

The Blitzboks' clinical 35-7 victory over Argentina was described as a historic achievement for the squad under coach Philip Snyman.

Meanwhile, the Black Ferns' 19-14 win solidified their status as the premier force in women's rugby sevens.

World Rugby officials praised Hong Kong as a significant global player in the sport as it prepares to host more major tournaments later this year.
