A planetary event, the 2023 World Cup organized in France brings together the best of rugby in a major, intense and spectacular celebration. Unlike the Six Nations Tournament and the Championship which annually bring together the major selections in each hemisphere, the World Cup has offered every four years, since 1987, the opportunity to crown the best nation on the oval planet.
We find in this book the story of these modern heroes that are Jonathan Sexton, Ange Capuozzo, Beauden Barrett, Maro Itoje, Antoine Dupont, Gaël Fickou, Finn Russell, Cheslin Kolbe … among the fifty best players in activity. Immense in talent, even genius, they are an inexhaustible source of inspiration for current and future generations. In this work, illustrated thanks to the prodigious iconographic collection of L’Équipe, the reader will discover these extraordinary internationals.
Richard Escot has been a journalist at L’Équipe since 1985. A specialist in international rugby, he is the author of numerous books on his favorite sport, including L’Anthologie des Bleus, published by Solar in 2022.
