Rugby union at the 1920 Summer Olympics was played in Antwerp. Two nations entered the rugby union event at the 1920 Summer Olympics — France and the United States. The French team were very much thought to be assured of the gold medal and came in as raging favourites in the event. However, the United States team caused a shock, defeating France in the only game eight points to nil.
