In February 2011, Hogg made his Glasgow Warriors debut in the Magners League, while the Scotland under-20 squad was also active that month. In the summer of 2011, he earned five caps in the Under-20 6 Nations and the IRB Junior World Championship.

Before going on to win full international recognition, Hogg has represented Scotland at under-17, under-18, and under-20 levels.

Following a string of spectacular performances for Glasgow, Hogg earned his first call up to Andy Robinson's 36-man squad for the 2012 Six Nations. Hogg played well on his debut against Wales in Cardiff, starting as a replacement after Max Evans' injury. For the first time in the match against France, Hogg was then inserted in the starting lineup. In the 8th minute against France, he scored his first attempt for Scotland.

In round one of the 2013 Six Nations Hogg scored his second and third international tries against England, and he scored against the Italians an intercept attempt from his 5-meter line for his third international try.

Hogg scored his fourth international test against France at Murrayfield on March 8, 2014. The referee looked at the replays on one of the big screens in the stadium on Wednesday and upgraded his decision to a red card after being sent off in a Six Nations game against Wales for a late and deadly foul on Dan Biggar. He made his first appearance against the United States on June 8th, 2014, during Scotland's Summer tour, after his red card against Wales and his 5th International appearance. During the Scotland Summer Tour, he slotted a crucial 43-meter header to win against Canada at BMO Stadium on June 14, 2014.

In the 2015 Rugby World Cup, Hogg participated in all five of Scotland's matches, in which Scotland was disqualified at the quarterfinal stage by Australia.

Hogg was back in the middle of the game, scoring tries against France and Ireland, the latter an inspired 55-meter individual effort after collecting a high ball. He was also praised for his ingenuity throughout the tournament, including attempts against the French and Italy. Following a public vote, Hogg was named as the first Scottish player to be named as the Six Nations Player of the Championship, becoming the first Scottish player to be honoured with the accolade.

Hogg had a superb 2017 Six Nations Championship scoring two tries against Ireland, before he continued his good form against France. In the 29-0 victory, he had 3 points with the boot in the last game of the 2017 Six Nations Championship against Italy. He received his second consecutive Player of the Championship award, becoming the second individual to achieve this award. Against New Zealand's 18/11/17, Stuart Hogg was named man of the match. He is now known as one of the best full backs in international rugby. In the warm up against Australia on November 25, Hogg was hospitalized in the warm up.

Hogg kicked the ball by Irish flanker Peter O'Mahony in the 2019 Six Nations Championships, opening Scotland's first game against Italy and their second round match against Ireland. Hogg and Referee Jerome Garces sustained a shoulder injury as a result of not stopping play or checking the TMO in this tumultuous no arms confrontation. Hogg continued to sit out the remainder of the championship, adding to Scotland's injury woes.

Hogg was named captain of the 2020 Six Nations Championships, debuting against Ireland, England, Italy, and France, before the global pandemic of COVID-19 called a halt. In Scotland's 17-0 victory over Italy, he scored in his first attempt of the tournament, moving in from his own half to scoring in the corner. He also crossed the line against Ireland but lost the ball when he went to ground it with his right hand. He led Scotland to their first away victory in Wales in 18 years after the tournament's return to the United Kingdom in the fall, kickin a penalty during his team's 14-10 triumph.

Hogg captained Scotland's 2021 Six Nations Championship, leading the team to epic away victories over England (for the first time since 1999) and France (for the first time since 1999). Hogg scored two tries against Wales as well as several points with the boot against Ireland and Italy during the campaign.

Hogg was highly rated to be selected for the British and Irish Lions for the third time during the 2021 tour to South Africa, following his form during the championship.

Hogg scored his 25th international try during Scotland's match against Japan at Murrayfield on November 20, 2021, becoming Scotland's all-time record try scorer.

During Scotland's first game of the 2022 6 nations, Hogg captained Scotland for their first back to back victory over England in four decades, kicking the ball into touch during the final play.

According to statistics and findings, Scotland's point is in bold.

Hogg was one of the four Scotland players called up for the 2013 British & Irish Lions tour to Australia, and he was the youngest player on the 2013 tour.

In June and July, Hogg was one of two Scottish players in the initial squad selected for the 2017 British & Irish Lions tour to New Zealand. On his third appearance of the tour in a provincial match, Hogg was injured after being trapped by his elbow, and he was disengaged from the tour before the Test Matches began.

Hogg was selected to tour South Africa in May 2021 by the 2021 British & Irish Lions Tour. After missing three tours due to enforced Covid-19 isolation, he was picked at full speed for the first Test match, playing the full 80 minutes as the Lions defeated 17-22. The following week, he completed the second Test for the full 80 minutes.

www.dailymail.co.uk, April 27, 2024
THE history and prestige of Toulouse isn't lost on Blair Kinghorn. In fact, it's almost inescapable. The fact he now plays for the most successful club in Europe is something he is reminded of on a daily basis. 'In the gym, there's a timeline on the wall of when the club won certain trophies,' he tells Mail Sport. 'That success and history is all around you. As a player, you feel it.' By his own admission, Kinghorn's French is still a work in progress. He takes one lesson a week, sometimes two if time allows.
