Born in Charleville, Queensland, of Greek descent, and whose residence is in Albany Creek.^{[citation needed]} Corones gave up swimming before the Second World War, made his career as a medical practitioner, then resumed swimming only after his 80th birthday.^{[citation needed]}

Corones competed at the 2012 World Championships in Italy, with top-three finishes in various 90-94 age group events. In February 2013, Corones smashed two world 95-99 class freestyle records at the Masters Swimming Queensland Meet held on the Gold Coast, Queensland.

At the Commonwealth Games trials held at the Gold Coast Aquatic Centre, Queensland, Australia, on 28 February 2018, Corones swam 50 metres in 56.12 seconds, breaking the previous record for 100- to 104-year-olds by 35 seconds, taking the record from Britain's John Harrison who had set a 1:31.19 mark in 2014. He also set the world record 100 metre mark at 2:24.21 at the same swim meet on 3 March 2018.
