MIAMI, Florida (Reuters) - World number six Andy Roddick is planning to marry 20-year-old model Brooklyn Decker.

"The couple wanted to tell their family and close friends first but good news travels fast," said a note on American Roddick's official Web site (www.andyroddick.com).

"With their hectic travel schedules, Andy and Brooklyn plan to enjoy their engagement and will wait to set a wedding date."

Decker has appeared as a swimsuit model in Sports Illustrated magazine.

Sixth seed Roddick continues his Sony Ericsson Open campaign with a third-round match against Czech qualifier Ivo Minar in Miami later on Monday.
