The Story
- Roger Federer met his wife Mirka Vavrinec at the 2000 Sydney Olympics when they were both playing Tennis for Switzerland and have been together since. They were married in a secret ceremony in April, 2009. Mere weeks after Federer won his sixth Wimbledon title, Mirka gave birth two twin girls, named Myla Rose and Charlene Riva. In an interview following one of Federer's Wimbeldon matches, he credited Mirka's calm pregnant demeanor with his success, saying:
Mirka's feeling great which obviously helps me to be more relaxed. She's a wonderful person anyway, but I think she's handling it really well and not going "Oh I'm pregnant, I can't move around, please help me." She's trying to be completely normal and I think that's been really good on me. So far so good.
Mirka is a former tennis player who had sort of a crazy introduction to tennis. When Mirka was 9 years old, her father took her to see a match at Filderstadt in Germany. Mirka ended up meeting Martina Navratilova, who thought that the 9 year old looked athletic and that she should try tennis. Navratilova arranged for Mirka to be sent a raquet and also to be given her first lesson. Mirka went on to a professional career, though professional may be a bit of a stretch. The highest she was ranked at any point in her career was 76 overall before she was forced to retire from the sport due to a chronic foot injury.

It's never good when the woman weighs more than the man in the relationship. Roger is the greatest tennis player ever. His wife wouldn't be ranked in the Top 200 - he can do much better. Or should have done much better.

Federer's wife does NOT weigh more than Fed. But even if she did....it seems that looks and weight are the most important thing to you in a relationship. Looks fade! This relationship seems to be built on respect and love. Maybe you could learn a thing or two from that. You are in deep trouble if this is how YOU approach your relationships.

It matters not what she weighs She is a beautiful looking person and looks so enthused at times and disappointed at times when he plays. It is obvious she goes through his agony in defeat and his happiness in winning He is obviously very happy in his life with her and now the children.

To the writer: You don't say "Two twin girls", unless there were 4 babies.
