Leigh Halfpenny, a rugby player, was born on Thursday, December 22, 1988 in Swansea, Wales, UK. He joined the Cardiff Blues in 2008 as a Welsh international rugby union player. He was with them until 2014, when he moved to Toulon. During his time at the Blues, Halfpenny won two Celtic League titles and three Welsh Premier Division championships. After leaving the Blues, Halfpenny signed a two-year deal with French club Toulon. In 2015, he became the first player to score 100 points in the European Rugby Champions Cup when his side beat Harlequins 24-6. Halfpenny has also played for Wales 66 times and scored 46 tries. He is the current record try scorer in the history of the game. His total of 50 tries comes from just 66 appearances during four seasons with the Cardiff Blues. The previous record holder was Jonathan Davies with 44 tries in 93 matches between 2006 and 2010. Halfpenny made his debut for Wales on February 4, 2009 against Australia at the Millennium Stadium, Cardiff. He came on as a replacement for Richard Hibbard after 57 minutes of play and helped his team win 31-19. Since then, he has not missed a single match for his country, except one. This happened in 2013 when he was out with an ankle injury.
