A 14-time ATP Tour champion, Ruud spoke to ATPTour.com last month about his excitement at becoming a father for the first time.
“It’s really exciting. It's something we've been looking forward to now for half a year, so time is running and it's going to be a new chapter for us,” said Ruud. “[It will be] a new way of life on Tour and I very much look forward to it, knowing how close I've been with my own family and my father and also my mother.
“I look forward to hopefully becoming a good parent myself. Even though this life requires a lot of time, a lot of energy and a lot of travel and these things, I look forward to trying to be there as much as I can and when I have downtime — time off from the court — I will spend it where I want to go with my future daughter.”
