NAOMI CAMPBELL has seen the daughter of an Australian Open winner join her modelling agency.
The former world No1 tennis star is seeing his daughter, India, following in his footsteps on the path to fame.
However, rather than picking up a racket, the 19-year-old has joined a modelling agency like her mother, Lara.
Priscillas Models, which operates out of Sydney, is one of Australia’s top agencies with names such as Campbell and Linda Evangelista.
Brit supermodel Campbell has clearly loved working with them after sticking with the same agent Down Under, one Priscilla Leighton Clark, across a stunning 30-year career.
And India has now joined the ranks at the agency, with her first headshots being put on the Priscillas website.
She doesn’t yet have a full portfolio on the site but has more than 2,000 followers on Instagram, where she has often been seen posting photos of her holidays and trips around the world.
India’s father, 52, is no stranger to globetrotting.
Back in the late 1990s and early 2000s, he was one of the top stars in global tennis, making six singles Grand Slam men’s singles finals in all.
He won the US Open in 1997 and 1998 with a striking man-bun before reaching the final of Wimbledon in 2000 and 2001.
Success in the Australian Open would elude the star in the men’s singles event despite reaching a semi-final in 2001.
However, he did win the doubles event on home soil alongside Swede Jonas Björkman in 1999.
If you haven’t already pieced together the clues, the tennis legend is none other than, Pat Rafter.
Rafter has two children, India and Joshua, 22, with wife Lara, whom he married in 2004.
He has taken a lower profile in recent years after years in the spotlight with his glittering tennis career and has even ditched his famous set of hair for a suitably lowkey look.
After retiring in 2003, Rafter became an underwear model for Bonds and a brand ambassador for the Mantra Group of hotels, while also being a successful businessman.
The Queensland Tennis Centre in Brisbane also has its centre court named the Pat Rafter Arena in honour of the legend.
