Don't think so: Anna's a Yorkshirewoman & Andrew's home county seems to be Warwickshire, so just an incredible coincidence of not especially common surnames!

They were also born on the same day, but they're not twins.

Now that is strange. And also something that the press might be able to make use of. Two young players with the same surname born on the same day, both making their way through the rankings.

Aye - that's the kind of thing that could get you sponsorship!
