World number two Roger Federer married his long-time girlfriend Mirka Vavrinec in his home town of Basel in Switzerland on Saturday.

"Earlier today...surrounded by a small group of close friends and family, Mirka and I got married," Federer said on his official website (www.rogerfederer.com). "It was a beautiful spring day and an incredibly joyous occasion."

Federer and Vavrinec met at the Sydney Olympics in 2000. Federer said last month they were expecting their first child later this year.
