There's another mom on the WTA Tour Driven by Mercedes-Benz! Australia's Daria Saville and her husband, former ATP pro Luke Saville, welcomed a son named Louie to the world this week. 

As one of the tour's most prolific social media personalities, the fan-favorite former Top 20 player chronicled her fertility and pregnancy journey on social media in an attempt to shed light on the process for a world-class athlete. The Savilles wed in 2021, and jointly announced her pregnancy last September in a video posted to TikTok and Instagram where, combined, she boasts over 1 million followers.

The 31-year-old, who reached the second week of the 2016 and 2017 Australian Opens, is also popular amongst her peers in the locker room -- and her happy news elicited many congratulations from other tour players.

They included a flood of fellow ATP and WTA Aussies, as well as Top 10 player Jasmine Paolini, Belinda Bencic, mother of 2-year-old Bella, and former World No. 2 Ons Jabeur -- who is also pregnant with a son due later this year.

After Louie's March 6 birth, the new family quickly settled into life as a crew of four, as the couple's long-haired Dachshund, Tofu -- a social media star in his own right -- stole the show with his affection for his new brother.

Saville played much of the 2025 season before announcing her pregnancy -- and later revealed that she contested the US Open qualifying tournament while around 10 weeks pregnant.
