Game, set and match

GUESS Thai tennis star Paradorn Srichaphan has found his perfect match — and he doesn’t mind ending up with a score of love, heh

The Thai player and former Miss Universe Natalie Glebova of Canada have announced their engagement and are set to marry later this year.

Here’s an excerpt from the Associated Press story:

Glebova, who was crowned Miss Universe in 2005, sported a 3-carat engagement ring. And the bridegroom’s parents presented her with a 16-carat diamond necklace-earring set that Paradorn put on his fiancée with shaking hands.

“I’m a bit nervous,” Paradorn confessed, adding that he hadn’t slept the night before. “For a man to decide to have a family, it’s a one-time decision and a big one.”

But the 28-year-old tennis player added: “This feels right. We share the same passions and really understand each other.”

The pair met at the Thailand Open in September when the 25-year-old beauty queen congratulated Paradorn for his quarterfinal win over Britain’s Tim Henman by giving him an on-court peck on the cheek.
