Amazing 101-year-old May Beveridge of Gippsland, Vic, is about to be crowned Guinness World Records’ oldest competitive croquet player.

The incredible centenarian began playing with her husband Allen at nearly 80.

May told that’s life! when Allen passed away, ‘I decided to go out to play croquet two or three times a week.’

Now competitive great grandma May’s beating players half her age and her Lakes Entrance Croquet club are like a second family.

Encouraging people of all ages to play croquet May explained, ‘It’s good exercise for your health and brain – it makes you think really hard.’

May’s three children, 23 grandchildren and great grandchildren are all incredibly proud.

And if May’s anything to go by, croquet could just be the key to longevity.

‘While I can still walk I’ll keep playing,’ May said.
