World Masters Games announce torchbearers at opening ceremony

And finally,

The organizers of the World Masters Games have announced that baseball legend
Peng Cheng-min, centenarian badminton player Lin Yu-mao and Olympic boxing
gold medalist Lin Yu-ting will be torchbearers at the opening ceremony in
Taiwan on Saturday.

They are among the five torchbearers set to appear at the ceremony, with
organizers saying the other two to be announced "in due course."

The World Masters Games 2025 Taipei and New Taipei City Organizing Committee
say the three individuals were chosen because they each embodied one of the
following values -- sports, youth, technology, culture and inclusion.

And according to the committee, the torchbearers will play a key role in
conveying the 2025 event's motto, which is "Sports beyond Age & Life without
Limits."

The 2025 World Masters Games in Taipei and New Taipei will be taking play
from May 17 through 31.

More than 2,000 athletes aged 65 and over will be competing in this year's
games, with 15 participants aged 90 and above, including eight from Taiwan.
