Andy Murray and his wife Kim Sears have welcomed their fourth child.

The 33-year-old had been scheduled to play at the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships but withdrew his place on Friday because of a lack of preparation time following the baby’s arrival.

Murray and Sears, who he married back in 2015, already have two daughters - Sophia Olivia, five, and Edie, three.

It is not known if the baby is a girl or boy and his management declined to reveal the gender, the SunSport reported.

The former world number one is set to travel to the US early next week to prepare for the Miami Open, which begins the following Monday.

He is also expected to receive a wild card to play in Miami.

Murray is known to be private when it comes to his family and in a rare insight into his life he spoke to The Times last year.

In the interview, he said: “At the time coronavirus started I was rehabbing, and I was actually fine missing tennis, because everybody else was missing it as well. I just got to spend lots of time with my family at home.”
