Retired Czech tennis player Lucie Safarova and her husband Tomas Plekanec welcomed their second child, a boy named Oliver.
The former doubles world No.1 announced the news on Instagram, sharing a photo of the newborn in the hands of all his family members, as well as a photo of the little guy with his older sister Lea who will turn three in December.
The 35-year-old Safarova had revealed her second pregnancy in late December, showing her baby bump while posing next to a Christmas tree. Four and a half months later, the WTA star is announcing the happy news: “Little brother is here! We are excited to welcome you to our family Oliver! Thank you to my hometown hospital for amazing care!”

Safarova’s husband also has two sons, Matyas and Adam, from his previous marriage to Czech singer/actress Lucie Vondrackova.
The five-time Grand Slam doubles champion Safarova quit tennis after the 2019 French Open, where she played doubles alongside Dominika Cibulkova.
