Wales rugby star's remarkable piece of skill gets 41 million views on Tik Tok in three months

Wales rugby star and former basketball player Tomos Williams has become a Tik Tok sensation.

You've seen length of field scores, try-saving tackles and last-gasp drop goals, which are breathtaking in their own right. But how glamorous can keeping the ball in play look? There are 41 million people who believe this is something to behold.

The clip has gone viral on World Rugby's Tik Tok after being posted in February, notching up almost a million likes in the process.

The video is taken from Wales' game against Australia during the World Cup group stage in 2019. The eagerly awaited clash between these two rugby giants lived up to the billing, with Wales winning by four points, 29-25.

Replacement Matt To'omua launched a monster kick which seemed destined for a threatening line out, but Williams was on hand to extinguish the threat by acrobatically plunging himself into the air and slapping the ball back in to play to prevent a late Wallaby surge.

This all happened at a crucial stage in the game, with the pressure mounting on Wales with only a few minutes to play. It allowed Warren Gatland's men to clear their lines and relieve the pressure.

It is no surprise this clip has been given a new lease of life on Tik Tok, with this marvelous piece of creativity capturing the imagination of rugby fans.
