South Africa have won 4 World Cups (1995, 2007, 2019, 2023), the most of any nation, with a powerful forward-dominated style. The 2027 World Cup will be held in Australia, with 24 teams (expanded from 20) to give more nations a chance to compete. The Rugby World Cup is the pinnacle of rugby union, and it is a cultural phenomenon in rugby-playing nations. South Africa are the most successful team, New Zealand are the most dominant, and England are the 2003 champions. The next World Cup is in 2027 in Australia, and it will be another global spectacle. Rugby may not be as popular as football globally, but for the nations that play it, it is a religion.
