Roger Federer has announced that his wife Mirka gave birth to twin girls yesterday.
"I have some exciting news to share with you," the Wimbledon champion's Facebook page said. "Late last night, in Switzerland, Mirka and I became proud parents of twin girls.
"We named them Myla Rose and Charlene Riva and they are both healthy, and along with their mother they are doing great.
"This is the best day of our lives."
The impending arrival of a new addition to the Federer family was the subject of some debate during Wimbledon when the world No 1 captured his sixth title at the grass court championship.
Mirka, 31, was courtside as he beat Andy Roddick 5-7, 7-6 (6), 7-6 (5), 3-6, 16-14 in a classic final on Centre Court to capture his 15th grand-slam title, surpassing the previous record held by Pete Sampras.
It is unclear how the birth of his daughters will affect his preparations for the US Open at the end of August.
