Former Wales and British & Irish Lions fly-half Dan Biggar has opened up about life after rugby, revealing how retirement has treated him in his first month away from the sport. The 33-year-old, who hung up his boots after a glittering career, reflects on the emotional rollercoaster of stepping away from the game he loves.
A New Chapter Begins
Biggar admits the transition hasn't been easy. "There are moments when you miss the adrenaline," he confesses. "But I'm enjoying spending more time with family and exploring new opportunities." The playmaker, known for his fiery competitiveness, is gradually adjusting to a slower pace of life.
Lions Tour: Pride and Perspective
The former Northampton Saints star shares poignant memories from the 2021 Lions tour to South Africa, where he played a crucial role despite the series loss. "Being part of the Lions is the ultimate honour," Biggar reflects. "Looking back now, you realise how special those moments were."
Wildlife Adventure Down Under
In a surprising revelation, Biggar details his recent visit to Australia Zoo, founded by the late Steve Irwin. "Meeting the animals was incredible," he beams. "There's something humbling about being around wildlife - it puts everything into perspective."
As Biggar navigates retirement, he remains open to new challenges while cherishing the memories of an extraordinary rugby career that saw him earn 109 caps for Wales and become one of the most respected players of his generation.
