The Swiss great announced earlier Tuesday that he had withdrawn from this week's Madrid Open Masters 1000 event to be at the delivery. He's a three-time champion in Madrid.
"I've decided to withdraw from Madrid to be with my wife Mirka during these next few exciting weeks for our family," the 32-year-old Federer wrote on his Facebook page earlier in the day. "I'll be training near my home, and am excited to rejoin the Tour soon."
The 17-time Grand Slam champion had said he would not hesitate to miss any tournament to be at the birth, even the French Open, which gets underway on May 25.
