Casper Ruud and his fiancée Maria Galligani shared exciting news on social media Thursday. The couple announced that they are expecting their first child.
“The team is growing. See you next year baby girl,” Ruud wrote in an Instagram post, accompanied by a photo of the couple (and their dog!) celebrating the announcement.
The post quickly drew heartfelt congratulations from fellow ATP Tour stars, including Novak Djokovic, Tommy Paul, Alejandro Davidovich Fokina, and more.
Last November, Ruud announced his engagement to Galligani.
Ruud, No. 12 in the PIF ATP Rankings, holds a 29-12 season record, according to the Infosys ATP Win/Loss Index. He won his biggest career title this year at the ATP Masters 1000 event in Madrid.
