"With stars in my eyes, I`m delighted to announce the birth of our son," read a message beneath a snap of the tennis ace nervously smiling with the swaddled baby in his arms.



The 31-year-old world number ten -- winner of back-to-back tournaments at Marseille and Rotterdam in February -- pulled out of the Miami tournament a week ago to be present for the birth alongside his partner Noura El Shwekh.


France captain Yannick Noah is hoping to convince Tsonga to play in the Davis Cup quarter-final tie against Great Britain in Rouen from April 7-9.
