A video of a 71-year-old Mexican woman showing her outstanding basketball abilities has gone viral online.
Andrea Garcia Lopez has been nicknamed "Granny Jordan" by internet users after a video of her dominating the basketball court in her small, remote town of San Esteban Atatlahuca, Oaxaca, surfaced on several social media platforms.
In the clip, Ms Lopez was seen faking out an opponent near the basket to make space for a shot which she expertly scored off the backboard.

According to Reuters, Ms Lopez is a local artisan. She told the media outlet that even though her knee is starting to act up a bit, she still hopes to keep playing for many years to come.
