Diamond Ring 'doesn't Mean Wedding Bells For Tennis Star'

Published on 16/04/08

A diamond ring is a great present even if you aren't getting married, according to Anna Kournikova.

The tennis star, who was spotted wearing a large diamond ring recently, has confirmed that she does not intend to tie the knot - ever.

After being spotted sporting the accessory, media speculation mounted surrounding the rumour that Kournikova was to wed her partner, singer Enrique Iglesias.

However, the Russian-born sportswoman told People magazine that the buzz was wide of the mark.

Commenting on peer Andy Roddick's recent engagement to Brooklyn Decker, the star voiced her intention to remain out of wedlock.

"I'm never getting married. Everything is good," she said.

Kournikova was born in 1981 and has ranked as the world's number one doubles player twice in her career.

Now semi-retired, the tennis player has modelled for brands including K-Swiss and Berlei during her high-profile life.
