The World Aquatics Masters Championships will shortly bring together some of the best masters athletes from around the world including a 100 year-old diver from Iran, Taghi Askar (Asgari) تقی عسگری. 

Seventy-three years since diving to a silver and bronze medal at the inaugural Asian Games in New Dehli, Iran’s Taghi Askari will once again take to the springboard, this time at the World Aquatics Masters Championships in Doha at the age of 100.
