Derrick Mayar scored his first ever try in the World Rugby Sevens but it counted a little to overturn the final result. Kenya still retains 11th position with 57 points after garnering ten points in Singapore-the highest ever in all rounds. Canada won their first ever title in the HSBC Sevens after beating USA 26-19 to claim gold in Singapore.
