Taipei: The torchbearers at the World Masters Games’ opening ceremony in Taiwan on Saturday will include baseball legend Peng Cheng-min, centenarian shuttler Lin Yu-mao, and Olympic boxing gold medalist Lin Yu-ting.

According to Focus Taiwan, the three announced by the event’s sporting committee were among the five torchbearers set to appear at the ceremony, with the other two to be announced “in due course.”

The torchbearers will play a key role in conveying the 2025 event’s motto, which is “Sports beyond Age and Life without Limits,” the World Masters Games 2025 Taipei and New Taipei City Organizing Committee said in a news release.

The committee noted that the three individuals named were chosen to carry the torch because they each embodied one of the following values: sports, youth, technology, culture, and inclusion.
