Just last month, Caroline Wozniacki lit up Instagram with a sun-soaked carousel, her glowing baby bump framed by sea and sky, captioned simply, “Nothing beats summer with the family.” Fans reveled in the picture-perfect warmth, while her close friend, former World No. 1 Serena Williams, poured love into the moment, writing, “Love you.” Now her family has one more member, as Caroline steps into an even brighter chapter, welcoming baby No. 3 with husband David Lee. With a heartfelt message, she turns that summer glow into a deeper, fiercer light, a mother’s pride, a family’s song, and a champion’s ever-growing legacy. 

Caroline Wozniacki has embraced a beautiful new chapter in her life. The 35-year-old tennis star announced on Saturday, July 26, through IG that she and her husband, David Lee, welcomed their third child, a baby boy named Max Wozniacki Lee. 

She shared a heartwarming photograph of their older children, Olivia, 4, and James, 2, cradling their newborn brother. Alongside the picture, Wozniacki wrote, “Max Wozniacki Lee, born July 26, 2025!” and added, “Mom and baby are healthy and our family couldn’t be happier! ❤️✨.”

The post drew a wave of love from the sports world. Anastasia Pivovarova commented, “Congratulations 😍 What a lovely family ❤️🥰🫠,” while Donna Vekić filled the section with red heart emojis. The Tennis Channel joined the celebration, writing, “Congrats Caro ❤️,” and even the Australian Open’s official Instagram chimed in with, “So sweet. Congratulations 💙💙💙.”

Wozniacki had first shared the news of her pregnancy back in April with a joyful Instagram reveal. In that post, she included a sweet family picture and captioned it, “Officially switching to zone defense! Our family couldn’t be more excited to welcome baby #3 soon! 👶🏼,” humorously noting that she and Lee would soon be outnumbered by their children.

Now, with Max’s arrival, her family’s love story expands, one that shines with joy, unity, and the warmth of a champion’s heart. And while Serena’s close on-court friend celebrates her third child, one question remains: can Serena stage a comeback after Venus hinted?

Is a Serena Williams comeback still a possibility?

For years, Serena Williams has often followed her elder sister Venus’s lead, but recently, she partly stepped away from that path. Despite Venus’ wish for a tennis comeback, Serena surprised fans by exploring an entirely different sport. In a lighthearted IG story, she shared a clip of herself attempting mini basketball. Far from her mastery on the tennis court, Serena admitted her struggles on the hoop, humorously writing, “Mini hoops, major flop. Thank goodness, I picked up a racket instead of a basketball. Pops really understood the assignment.”

What’s your perspective on:

With baby number three, has Caroline Wozniacki found her greatest joy off the tennis court?

Have an interesting take?

While her basketball skills drew laughs, the connection between Serena and the sport runs deeper than a playful video. Earlier this year, she became a part-owner of the WNBA’s Toronto Tempo, a new franchise set to join the league next season as part of its expansion. This bold step into basketball management reflects Serena’s willingness to embrace new challenges while still keeping her options open.

Venus’ wish for her sister’s tennis return may yet find its way to reality. Serena has never entirely dismissed the possibility of a comeback and, at times, has even spoken optimistically about it. Her words in an earlier interview revealed that competitive fire still flickers beneath the surface.

“I think as long as I’m healthy, that’s always going to be in the back, back, back, back, back, back, back of my mind. I stay fit. I stay healthy. When I’m watching, it’s like, Okay, well, you could be out there too,” she once said. When Serena retired in 2022, she left behind a void that the tennis world still feels. Her dominance, her fight, and her presence shaped an era, and fans continue to wonder if that chapter could ever reopen.

With Venus at 45 still competing and gaining a wildcard entry at the Cincinnati Open, outlasting opponents, and proving age is not the final barrier, Serena has both the blueprint and the inspiration to return. The question now lingers: will she pick up her racket once more?
