That kick took him past Neil Jenkins and made him the first Welshman to score a century of points at the tournament. France 2023 is his third campaign and the 32-26 win over Fiji was his 11th appearance.

Already the holder of the most penalties scored at the World Cup with 21, he added two more to his tally in Bordeaux. His match tally of 12 points took him to 109 to date.

Jonny Wilkinson holds the record for the most points scored at the tournament with 277, while Gavin Hastings is second with 227. Michael Lynagh comes next with 195, followed by Dan Carter on 191 and Grant Fox on 170.

As he counts down to international retirement at the end of the World Cup, Biggar can currently look back on a career with Wales that includes 110 caps, 56 wins and 619 points.
