This is a list of all athletes that were over 100 when they competed. That means that people like Silas Simmons who played baseball in his younger years and lived to the claimed age of 111 would not be included in this list because he never played sports over the age of 100.
It is arranged in the final age of the people, not the age that they retired. This list is under construction.
