Boris Becker Dumped By Fiancee By Text Message

Boris Becker was dumped by his fiancee by text message, telling him it was game, set and match in a blow that "trampled on my soul," the former German tennis star revealed in comments published on Friday.

"On Friday evening, October 31, I suddenly got an SMS from Sandy .. saying that this was it, that this over. To make sure how serious she was she sent me five others saying the same thing," 40-year-old Becker told the Bild daily.

"I was completely surprised," said Becker, who who has been linked to a string of different women since his 2001 divorce from Barbara Feltus, with whom he had two sons.

Becker rocketed to worldwide fame in 1985 when at 17 he became the youngest player ever to win the Wimbledon men's singles title. His latest ex, Sandy Meyer-Woelden, is 15 years his junior and is the daughter of his late trainer.
