Milos Raonic will be playing in his biggest match ever today, his first Grand Slam final appearance when he takes on Andy Murray in the Wimbledon championship.
And there to cheer him on in London will be his girlfriend, Danielle Knudson.
Like her tennis star beau, Knudson is used to the spotlight. Knudson is world-known model who has appeared in major ad campaigns, which includes Guess.
Knudson began modeling at a young age and got serious at 15. She eventually signed with the agency Wilhelmina and is now with Sutherland Models. Click here to check out her Sutherland profile.
And next year, there’s a chance Knudson will grace the pages of the famous Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition. She recently went through the SI offices on a casting call.
The 5-foot-9 blonde hails from Red Deer, Alberta, in Western Canada. Raonic, while born in the former Yugoslavia, grew up across the country in the suburbs of Toronto. She’s usually a constant presence at Milos’ tournaments around the world.
As you can probably guess, Knudson is a social media star with over 300,000 followers between her Twitter and Instagram accounts. You can follow her on Twitter @DanielleKn1 and be one her 284K-plus fans on IG @danielleknudson1.
Knudson has had her fair share of famous admirers in the past, including Justin Bieber. Yes, that Justin Bieber. Also a Canadian, the Biebs gave Knudson an Instagram shout out a couple of years back, something that probably didn’t hurt her career.
Bieber posted a screenshot of a picture Knudson had put up with the caption: “Who is this Guess Model. She’s Stunning.” Here it is below:
While rumors of a Bieber-Knudson romance immediately took off, Knudson insisted she and the singer were never an item. And, in fact, she told TMZ last year she had been dating Raonic for a while.
Point, Raonic.
