Only hours after their widely anticipated birth, the twin daughters of Roger Federer and Mirka Vavrinec are already being tipped for tennis stardon.
London bookmakers are offering 100/1 (101.00) odds of one of the pair someday winning Wimbledon.
Charlene Riva and Myla Rose have barely opened their eyes but are tabbed as 25/1 (26.00) to claim a Grand Slam event. "The twins certainly come from good tennis stock," said a spokesman for Ladbrokes. "If they are half as good as their dad they will still be a potent force on the court."
With their tennis pedigree as daughters of the best in the world to play the game, the newborns have been rated as 50/1 (51.00) to win a Grand Slam doubles title as part of the same team and 200/1 (201.00) to earn the Wimbledon crown before 2035, when they will turn 26.

Assuming the baby girls won't turn into Paris Hiltons with the millions dad has in the bank..... Would they choose the catwalk over the tennis courts? Who knows...
