Stephen Jones is a Welsh journalist and the rugby correspondent for The Sunday Times since the 1970s.[1] He covers rugby for The Times as well. He also contributes an occasional report on others sports like cricket, football, and golf, in addition to his main topic of rugby.[2]
In 2019, he was on the first panel to determine the World Rugby women's-15s player-of-the-year award with Melodie Robinson, Danielle Waterman, Will Greenwood, Liza Burgess, Lynne Cantwell, Fiona Coghlan, Gaëlle Mignot, Jillion Potter, and Karl Te Nana.[3]
On 14 May 2023 Stephen accidentally revealed himself to be a time traveller after publishing an article on The Times newspaper website (quickly deleted) wherein he wrote a scathing article about the Rugby Sevens at Twickenham stating "Yesterday at Twickenham, nearly 50,000 were expected for the London leg of the HSBC World Sevens Series. What is more, Twickenham say they expect 25,000 to attend today for the finals" - The Twickenham London leg of the 7s was scheduled to be played on 20 May 2023, a whole week later. This was revealed on a Reddit post /rugbyunion[4]
