Ben Youngs has admitted he had the ‘weight of the world’ on his shoulders at the end of last season when he helped Leicester to Gallagher Premiership glory.

England scrum-half Youngs played in the Tigers’ final victory over Saracens at Twickenham in June, a game which came just weeks after the death of his brother Tom’s wife, Tiffany, following a heroic battle with cancer.

Youngs then missed England’s summer tour of Australia to grieve with his family. But on the eve of the new season, England’s record cap holder is ready to tear into a campaign which has what would be his fourth World Cup at the end of it.
