He popped the question in Bora Bora, using the brilliant blue ocean as a backdrop. The diamond ring is 8.88 carats, according to Page Six.

"She said yes!!! So thrilled to be engaged to my soul mate!!!" Lee wrote on social media.

Wozniacki is coming off of a win on Sunday against Venus Williams in the WTA Finals in Singapore.

The tennis star was formerly engaged to golfer Rory McIlroy, but the two split up in 2014.

Woznacki posted several pictures from her trip to French Polynesia.

"No filter needed," she wrote on one post last week. In that photo, she sports a bikini while sitting in an infinity pool and staring out at the Pacific Ocean.

Lee declined his player option with the Spurs in June. He dealt with a partially torn patellar tendon last season with the Spurs, but the injury did not require surgery.
