Olympic 2020: Sharni Williams think they’ll celebrate their win for years

Australia Rugby co-captain Sharni Williams will never forget the amazing feeling of winning rugby sevens gold at Rio 2016 and would love to defend their Olympic 2020 title when the Tokyo Olympic 2020 women’s sevens competition kicks off in a year’s time.

In 12 months’ time periods Australia co-captain Sharni Williams will confidence to lead her nation out at Tokyo Rugby Stadium when the women’s rugby sevens competition gets underway at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.

Williams and her Australian teammates wrote their names into the history books on 8 August 2016 as rugby sevens’ first Olympic gold medalists at Rio 2016 in Brazil day the former car mechanic will never forget.

No one can take that moment away from us Williams told World Rugby after Australia confirmed their place at Tokyo 2020 with a 4 place finish on the HSBC World Rugby Women’s Sevens Series 2019.

“It was a phenomenal day for us, we’d planned it day in day out and four years we’d been waiting for it and to be able to play for your country along with other sports was a totally amazing feeling.

I think we’ll continue to celebrate it years from now.”
