Rugby union, specifically in the sevens format, was introduced as a World Games sport for men at the 2001 World Games in Akita. Fiji entered the 2009 games as the two time defending Gold Medalists. Held on July 24th and 25th of 2009 in Taiwan, Fiji did not fail to clinch gold for the 3rd time in front of a crowd of 39,000. The Fijian win preserves Fiji as the only nation to ever capture gold at the games. Represented were South Africa (the reigning IRB Sevens World Series Champions), Portugal (the reigning European Sevens Champions), Argentina (the reigning USA Sevens Champions), Fiji (the reigning World Games Gold Medalists), and Chinese Taipei (the host nation). The USA was the biggest disappointment of Day 1 going 0-3 having been expected to compete for a medal. The biggest surprise of the event was Portugal finding their way into the Gold Medal Matchand coming away with the Silver Medal.
