Boris Becker Announces Engagement | Tennis update


Boris Becker

"Boom Boom" Boris Becker, who earned the nickname for the thud of his powerful serve, won over the crowd at Wimbledon's centre court in 1985 when he won the tournament at 17.Announced his Engagement on Saturday Night Show

Saturday night game show Boris Becker said he would marry former girlfriend, Dutch model Lilly Kerssenberg, in June.

Becker and Kerssenberg had split up at the end of 2007 after a roughly two-year long relationship and last year Becker announced his engagement to glamorous jewellery designer Sandy Meyer-Woelden after seeing her for only a few months.

"Will Boris keep his word this time?" was the headline on the front page of top-selling Sunday paper Bild am Sonntag, with a picture of the couple kissing.

The wedding is to be in exclusive resort of St. Moritz, Switzerland.

German papers and society magazines lap up stories on the red-haired champion's love life, not least as many of his girlfriends, including Kerssenberg, bear a striking resemblance to his ex-wife Barbara with whom he has two sons.
