Wood, Keith

    0.09 sec.

Wood, Keith (1972– )

Irish rugby union player. He made his debut for Ireland in 1994 and earned 58 caps for his country, including a record 33 as captain. His attacking play earned him a place on the British Lions tour to South Africa in 1997, and he also toured with them in 2001 to Australia. He played for Harlequins from 1996, with the exception of the 1999–2000 season when he played for Munster. Wood broke the Irish record for most tries in one game, scoring four against the American Eagles in the 1999 World Cup, which was also a world best for a hooker.
