NEW YORK (AP) — Fashion model Brooklyn Decker is this year's Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition cover girl.

Decker is the wife of tennis star Andy Roddick and is a five-year veteran of the magazine. She says being chosen for the front is "the news of a lifetime."

In Decker's cover photo she's smiling in a yellow bikini with her arms folded in front of her chest and the bikini top draped over her shoulder. She calls the shot a departure from the more sultry look Sports Illustrated had gone for the past few years.

Sports Illustrated keeps the cover photo a secret even from the models until less than a day before it's revealed. The magazine's 47th swimsuit edition hits newsstands Tuesday.
