WATCH: USA Sevens player scorches length of the pitch try in just 11 seconds

The United States are coming for Gold at Rio 2016.

Day One of the USA Rugby Sevens took place in Las Vegas on Friday and the hosts got off to a winning start. USA won their opening two pool matches and fans were treated to some devastating pace from both Carlin Isles and Perry Baker.
