England captain Sarah Hunter believes women’s rugby has not even “scratched the surface” in terms of how big a sport it can become.
Hunter’s team are the global pace-setters two months out from an eagerly anticipated World Cup in New Zealand. They top the world rankings, have won four successive Six Nations titles and are unbeaten for 23 Tests since losing to New Zealand in 2019.
Such impressive achievements help underpin England’s status as World Cup favourites as they bid to reclaim a trophy they last won eight years ago.
Hunter, a pillar of the women’s game who has won 134 caps during a 15-year international career, has been inspired by England’s stunning success at Women’s Euro 2022.
