Taiwanese singer Jay Chou’s grandfather-in-law Laurence Quinlivan, 90, showed that age is just a number.
The nonagenarian recently took part in the World Masters Games 2025, an Olympics adjacent event for athletes mostly over 30, held in Taipei and New Taipei City in Taiwan from May 17 to 30.
He won a gold medal for javelin and a silver medal for the 100m sprint for the 90+ age group on the first day of the event on May 18.
Chou, 46, congratulated Quinlivan for his achievements on Instagram Stories on May 18.
Quinlivan is the grandfather of Chou’s wife, Taiwanese-Australian model-actress Hannah Quinlivan, 31. Her father is Australian and her mother is of Chinese and Korean descent.
Chou posted a photo of Quinlivan being interviewed by the media, with the caption: “@hannah_quinlivan’s grandpa is awesome.”
Hannah Quinlivan also uploaded a video of her grandfather taking part in the 100m sprint, with the caption: “Thank you for cheering for grandpa.”
Quinlivan showed that it was no fluke when he won another silver medal for the 200m sprint for the same age group on May 19. He will be taking part in shot put and discus later in the week. – The Straits Times/Asia News Network
