Leonid Stanislavskyi, a 97-year-old Ukrainian man ,holds the Guinness World Record for world's oldest tennis player. Stanislavskyi has been playing amateur tennis for more than half a century – it is next to impossible for him to find a worthy adversary in his age group, but that has not stopped him participating in the world and European championships for seniors and outplaying younger competitors, although he is not moving around the court as fast as he used to. • Subscribe to Guardian Sport ► http://bit.ly/GDNSport • 'It is an elegant type of sport. It is good physical exercise. It is a beautiful game. And there is one more thing about tennis – you can play no matter what age you are,' he said. He says his ultimate goal is to live to 100 years old and meet Roger Federer. • The Guardian publishes independent journalism, made possible by supporters.
