Who is Jonny Wilkinson CBE?
Jonny Wilkinson is one of the most iconic English Rugby players of all time, and now works as one of the UK’s most sought-after Rugby speakers.
What are Jonny Wilkinson CBE’s main achievements?
Jonny’s main achievements throughout his international career are second-to-none. He played 91 times for England, making him one of the most capped players to ever represent the red rose. A formidable fly-half, he also holds the record for the most points scored by an England player, with a staggering total of 1,179. Jonny played six times for the British & Irish Lions, and in 2016 was inducted into the World Rugby Hall of Fame, confirming his place as one of the sport’s greatest-ever players.
What is Jonny Wilkinson CBE best known for?
Jonny is arguably best known for his folklore moment where he scored the crucial drop goal in the 2003 World Cup final against Australia in extra time. This has gone down as the most memorable moment in the history of English Rugby, and resulted in England being crowned world champions for the first time ever.
Since retiring in 2014, Jonny has worked as both a television pundit and one of the best Rugby after-dinner speakers on the circuit. He uses his speaking events to discuss in detail the highlights of his fine career. In addition to entertaining audiences with tales from the Rugby pitch, he can also take on a more serious tone, opening up about the anxiety and depression that he suffered for much of his life.
