India Rafter has followed in her mum’s footsteps rather than picking up a tennis racket like her dad.

The Australian, who is the daughter of Australian Open doubles winner Pat Rafter, has linked up with Naomi Campbell’s modelling agency. Priscillas Models, based in Sydney, is one of Australia’s top agencies and boasts names such as Campbell and Linda Evangelista.

India, 19, is the agencies latest model, with their website sharing her headshots. The agency has shared six snaps of India, but they are yet to share a full portfolio.

However, there are more snaps of India on her Instagram – where she has over 2000 followers.

India is clearly no stranger to travelling with recent snaps showing her soaking up the sunny weather with friends. Another dump shows the Aussie in Praiano, in the Campania region of southwest Italy on the scenic Amalfi Coast.

India’s dad was one of the top stars in tennis back in the late 1990s and early 2000s – making six singles Grand Slam men’s singles finals. He would strike gold at Flushing Meadows, winning the US Open in 1997 and 1998.

However, he would never quite reach the same heights at Wimbledon, losing in the 2001 and 2002 finals to three-time defending champion Pete Sampras and Goran Ivanisevic respectively.

Singles success Down Under would also evade the star, but he would win gold in the doubles event alongside Swede Jonas Björkman in 1999.

Rafter, himself, has dabbled in modelling and after hanging up his racket in 2003 he became an underwear model for Bonds and a brand ambassador for the Mantra Group of hotels.

However, he has since taken his life out of the limelight.
