Mr Weeks is now Australia's 3rd oldest verified man ever.
He sits behind the quite recently new record holder - Dexter Kruger at 111-188 - who died in 2021.
And the prior record holder Jack Lovelock at 111-123, who passed away in 2002.

Hopefully Mr. Weeks can break Mr. Kruger's record in slightly over half a year's time!
Happy 111th birthday, Mr. Weeks!

At this stage I cannot find anything in our local (Australian) newspapers, nor internet articles.
