Samoan All Blacks loose forward Wallace Sititi won men's breakthrough player of the year at the World Rugby awards.

Springboks flanker Pieter-Steph du Toit has been named World Rugby's men's player of the year for a second time, with England fullback Ellie Kildunne taking out the women's award at a ceremony in Monaco.

Du Toit also won the award in 2019.

Women's sevens player of the year award went to Australia's Maddison Levi.

France's Antoine Dupont won men's sevens player of the year, becoming the first player to win both the sevens and 15s player of the year awards in a career.
