WINKLEVOSS TWINS TO COMPETE IN LONDON OLYMPICS
CAMERON and TYLER WINKLEVOSS, who were portrayed by ARMIE HAMMER in THE SOCIAL NETWORK, are to compete in the Olympics in London next year (12).
The Winklevosses, who took Facebook.com founder Mark Zuckerberg to court after accusing him of stealing their idea for the social networking website, finished sixth in the coxless pairs rowing event at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, and now they have their sights set on London.
The twins have started training with the U.S. Olympics team in San Diego, California.
The siblings insist their seven-year-old Facebook litigation is ongoing, and they will continue to fight Zuckerberg during their tough training regimen.
A spokesman for Facebook tells the Los Angeles Times, "We consider the Winklevoss matter closed."
