Standard reference sources give year of birth as 1927. Writers Guild of America records show 1924. Variety may have used that and quick maths suggest age 84. But he was born December. I have never seen 1923 anywhere.

Laura Robson really was playing in the girls' singles (the under 18 competition), not the women's singles. No sexism is intended - the equivalent under 18 competition is referred to as the boys' singles. David Underdown (talk) 08:43, 10 July 2008 (UTC)Reply
