Stuart William Hogg MBE (born 24 June 1992) is a Scottish professional rugby union player, who plays for Montpellier of the French Top 14.[2]

He has represented Scotland at international level, having made his test debut against Wales during the 2012 Six Nations Championship. He was Scotland's all-time leading try-scorer.

Hogg was named Six Nations Player of the Tournament in 2016 and 2017. [3] He was selected to tour with the British & Irish Lions three times (2013, 2017 and 2021). His 2017 tour was cut short due to an injury, but in 2021 he gained two Lions Test caps against South Africa.[4]

On 4 November 2024, Hogg pleaded guilty to domestic abuse of his estranged wife.[5]
