Olympic Gold Medallist Belinda Bencic Welcomes First Child

Belinda Bencic, the Olympic gold medallist from Switzerland, has announced some exciting news – she has become a mother for the first time! The 27-year-old tennis champion shared the joyous news on her Instagram account alongside her partner and fitness coach, Martin Hromkovic. The couple posted a heartwarming photograph with the caption “Bella, our love” and the date of their daughter’s birth.

Bencic, who took home the gold medal in both singles and doubles at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, has received an outpouring of congratulations from fellow tennis players and fans alike. World No.1 women’s player Iga Swiatek and Viktorija Golubic, Bencic’s doubles partner in Tokyo, were among those who sent their best wishes to the new parents.

Despite taking a break from the tour to focus on motherhood, Bencic has expressed her desire to return to competitive tennis. Her ranking has dropped from No.14 to 92 since she announced her pregnancy in November, but she is determined to make a comeback.

With the Paris Olympics tennis tournaments just three months away, fans are eagerly anticipating Bencic’s return to the court. The Swiss star will undoubtedly be balancing the demands of motherhood with her professional tennis career, but if her past achievements are anything to go by, she is more than capable of succeeding in both roles.

Congratulations to Belinda Bencic and Martin Hromkovic on the arrival of their daughter, Bella. The tennis world is excited to see what the future holds for this new tennis mom and her growing family.
