The Fiji Women's 7s side has bagged another gold medal for Fiji at the 2023 Pacific Games after defeating PNG 17-7 in a pulsating Women's gold medal final.

Fiji scored the first try in the first half with a successful conversion before PNG replied with a converted try of their own to level the score at 7-all.

Both teams were locked at 7-all at halftime.

Fiji came back in the second spell to score two tries and a conversion for the win as the kept PNG scoreless in the second half.

Fiji now have won 10 gold, 16 silver, and 16 bronze so far.
