Ana Obarrio de Pereyra Iraola's dream of becoming a tennis star was put on hold in 1949 when her husband stopped her playing.
For the next 20 years, she concentrated on raising their 10 children instead.
But now at 83, this Argentine grandmother has revived her dream.
"I like to compete. I like to win," she says, sitting down in the heat at the Hurlingham sports club in Buenos Aires.
She spoke to AFP just after winning the Argentina Senior Masters in the 80-plus category.
Obarrio's family indulged her love of tennis. She started playing as a girl and was a youth champion.
But the social mores of late 1940s Argentina got the better of her after she met her husband when she was 18.
