GRR: Sevens World Series
It's 3rd place for the USA Men's 7s team in Cape Town after the Eagles defeated South Africa in the Bronze Medal match.
The Men's Eagles 7s team started the Cape Town 7s with a 38-5 defeat of Uganda.
This was what fans should expect from the USA team. They struck quickly and kept it up—their approach was simple but executed well and they were in complete control of the game from the start.
Both USA 7s teams are in Cape Town for the next legs of the World Series.
This is Leg #3 for the men and #2 for the women. At least in future seasons it will be the same leg for each as everything will be evened out for the 2023-24 season.
Fourth place for the USA Men's 7s team in Dubai provided a little look at what a difference some of the more experienced players make.
While everyone who came back from injury is a good player, the one who probably had the greatest influence was Joe Schroeder. Winning restarts and winning the aereal battle suddenly became a lot easier with the former Royal Irish star.
World Rugby has outlined a new plan for the future of the Sevens World Series, looking to leverage the entertainment and festival atmosphere of the tournaments and also equalize the two circuits.
