They started forming a connection during college and grew close to one another but it was only after college that they started really hitting it off. It is assumed that they were too busy focusing on their own lives, sports and academics that they didn’t even have time to think about dating.

After a year of dating, the couple got engaged and then married in 2003 and the rest was history! Sybi was an exceptional tennis player in college but decided to not pursue tennis professionally. After college, she coached tennis for a while but then stopped that too.

But, that is not to say she doesn’t play socially. The dynamic-duo are actually amazing doubles partners and won the consolation title in the USTA National Husband/Wife Doubles Championship.
