Actress Kaley Cuoco of ‘The Big Bang Theory’ Dates American Tennis Player Ryan Sweeting (Photos)

The CBS sitcom The Big Bang Theory has gained international recognition, and so have its actors.

Kaley Cuoco plays Penny, a waitress and aspiring actress who lives across the hall from two physicists. Cuoco has also starred in ABC’s sitcom 8 Simple Rules and The WB’s drama Charmed.

It’s Cuoco’s personal life, however, that has been the reason for the paparazzi’s fascination with the 27-year-old actress. Earlier this summer, she was seen with British actor Henry Cavill. The two split two weeks after announcing their relationship.

It seems as if the Man of Steel star did not leave Cuoco heartbroken, though. Cuoco’s latest interest is American tennis player Ryan Sweeting. Perhaps the two bonded over their mutual love for the game — Cuoco was a nationally ranked amateur tennis player before she quit to pursue acting in 2002. Sweeting is currently ranked 518th in the world.
