“Bursting with joy and our hearts are so full with the safe arrival of our beautiful son,” Dellacqua wrote.

Dellacqua is the second recently retired WTA star to give birth this month after Martina Hingis welcomed a baby girl.

The Australian retired last April to spend more time with her family, which includes her five-year-old son Blake Benjamin and two-year-old daughter Andie (both carried by Judd).

During her career, Dellacqua won seven doubles titles, and reached seven Grand Slam doubles finals. She also captured the 2011 Roland Garros mixed doubles crown, with Scott Lipsky.
