At 95-years-young, Mrs Pieper plays golf at least once a week.
Her friends at the local golf club presented Mrs Pieper with a special cake inspired by the sport that she has been playing for about 60 years.
Born in Victoria, Mrs Pieper has one child, two grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
She was always a keen sportsperson having played badminton and table tennis before she took up golf many years ago.
Her advice to others was to "not give up", adding that she is "lucky" as she's hardly had much sickness.
Mrs Pieper had plans to catch up with family later that evening.
