Daniel William CarterONZM (born 5 March 1982) is a New Zealand retired rugby union player.
Carter played for the Crusaders (Super Rugby) in New Zealand and for New Zealand's national team, the All Blacks. He is the highest point scorer in test match rugby,[1] and is considered by many experts as the greatest ever first five-eighth (fly-half) in the history of the game.[2] He was named the International Rugby Board Player of the Year in 2005, 2012 and 2015[3] (equaling the record three awards of Richie McCaw) and has won three Super Rugby titles with the Crusaders, and nine Tri-Nations and Rugby Championships with the All Blacks.
Carter played for the All Blacks in their Rugby World Cup winning teams in both 2011 and 2015, becoming one of 43 players to have won multiple Rugby World Cups. In 2011, he suffered a groin injury during the pool stage; in 2015, he played during the entire tournament, including in the final against Australia, where he kicked four penalties, two conversions, and a drop goal, and was named the man of the match.
In 2015, Carter released his autobiography named 'Dan Carter: The Autobiography of an All Blacks Legend'.
In 2019, 'Dan Carter: A Perfect 10', a documentary film about Carter's personal life and the challenges he encountered on his road to winning the 2015 Rugby World Cup was released.
