Tennis star Jo-Wilfried Tsonga's home in Switzerland was burgled while he was playing against Roger Federer in the final of the ATP World Tour Finals in London over the weekend.

Tsonga said he hoped he would still be able to "recognize his house" when he returns, Swiss newspaper Le Matin reported.

Tsonga has lived in Gingins, a village close to the border with France, since July 2009.

The alarm was raised Monday morning by a neighbor, who noticed that one of the windows had been forced open.

Tsonga, 26, was beaten 6-3 6-7 (6-8) 6-3 by Federer in the final of the season-ending tournament at London's O2 Arena on Sunday.
