Kenya superstar Collins Injera celebrated his 200th try on the HSBC World Sevens Series by taking out a permanent marker from his sock and signing a camera.

In a pre-planned move - you can only guess how uncomfortable it must have been to have that marker next to his leg as he waited for his 200th try - he touched down then signed the ball and walked over to autograph a camera. It is a practice seen in tennis but Injera did not know that tennis players sign a protective cover not the lens itself. The lens - now permanently marked with Injera's autograph - costs in the region of £60,000 ($120,000).
