Kate Hudson and Lance Armstrong have taken their tour de love to the tennis court.

The couple were spotted cosying up between volleys during a doubles match in Brentwood, Los Angeles yesterday.

The actress took her eye off the ball long enough to wrap her arms around the seven-time Tour de France champion and shower him with kisses.

After the game, they slipped off for a romantic meal together in Laguna Beach.

The pair first began seeing eachother during a visit to the Bahamas in May, right after she broke up with the troubled actor Owen Wilson.

While they have tried to keep their romance low-key, they have increasingly been seen by each other's side in recent weeks.

They spent Father’s Day together in Brooklyn with Kate's son Ryder, 4, and Lance's children Luke, 8, and twins Isabelle and Grace, 6. 

It turned out to be a rather unconventional family affair, with Kate's former husband, rocker Chris Robinson, also joining in the two hour brunch.

Lance, 36, who has turned his attention to anticancer charity campaigning since retiring from cycling, has developed a reputation as a playboy following a string of high profile romances.

After his two-year relationship with the singer Sheryl Crow ended in 2006, he swiftly moved on to fashion designer Tory Burch.

The he was spotted canoodling in New York's Gramercy Park Hotel Rose Bar nightclub with Ashley Olsen, who is 15 years his junior. 

During an appearance on US talkshow The View last week, Lance dodged questions about his latest relationship, saying: 'I know you have to ask that question . . . and it's my right not to answer it.'

Kate has been equally as coy, saying: 'It's better to let ... people speculate as much as they want to speculate.'
