Germany’s Schweinsteiger weds Serbian tennis ace Ivanovic

BERLIN – German soccer star Bastian Schweinsteiger has tied the knot with Serbian tennis player Ana Ivanovic.

Photos of the couple in Venice, Italy, had stirred talk that they were getting married.

On Wednesday, the 31-year-old Manchester United player posted a picture of himself and his bride with the words “Mr. & Mrs. (heart)” on Twitter.

Ivanovic, 28, a former No. 1, crashed out of Wimbledon in the first round last month.

Schweinsteiger captained Germany’s team to the semifinal of the European Championship, where it lost to host France.
