NEW YORK - TRIPLE grand slam winner Lindsay Davenport is pregnant with her second child and has pulled out of next month's Australian Open.
The 32-year-old former world number one will be off the tour indefinitely.
'Of course this unexpected but exciting surprise now means I will be putting tennis on hold for the foreseeable future,' Davenport said in a statement on Wednesday.
The American returned to the tour last year after giving birth to her first child and has since won four titles. -- REUTERS
