Iranian centenarian wins diving gold medal at 2024 Doha World Swimming Championships. Taj Asgari was the first competitor to perform an armstand somersault.

The secret of his persistence in diving for nearly a century is "only love," he said. Chinese swimmer Pan Zhanle broke the men's 100-meter freestyle world record at this World Championships. He was born in 2004, but he is still under 20 years old. The event will be held in Doha, Qatar, in 2024.
