Rory Lamont (born 10 October 1982 in Perth) is a former rugby union player who played fullback and on the wing for Glasgow Warriors and Scotland. He prides himself on his versatility. Rory is the younger brother of Sean Lamont.
He played for Northampton Saints due to the reputation of his older brother. He also played for Northampton Old Scouts RFC after having left Northampton Saints. He is yet another international to have played for the Scouts that includes Ben Cohen, Steve Thompson and Courtney Lawes.
In February 2009 it was announced that Rory was to join RC Toulon in France's Top 14.
On 27 November Rory terminated his contract himself as he felt he was not getting enough playing time risking him losing his place in his Scottish side, he was linked with a return to Northampton Saints as a winger but also to Harlequins and Saracens. He joined Glasgow Warriors in December 2011.
Lamont made a memorable try scoring debut for Scotland in the 2005 Six Nations Championship match against Wales at Murrayfield. He also played for Scotland As against Australia A in the experimental position of inside centre at national coach Frank Hadden request.
