It runs in the family: Sport's most famous siblings

It’s a family phenomenon if one child in a family makes it to the pinnacle of a sport. However, in some rare cases, siblings have the mentality to reach it together.

In some families, sporting talent and athletic ability runs so deep it's partially a birthright. In those lucky families, it's not uncommon to see two or three members make it to the top flight of their chosen sport.

While some take on individual pursuits, others end up facing off against each other. Ever got so angry you could tackle your sibling or push them in the chest? Some of the siblings on this list get paid to do that against each other!
