Bernard Tomic (Croatian: Bernard Tomić; born 21 October 1992) is an Australian professional tennis player. As of 24 October 2011, Tomic is the highest ranked Australian male tennis player and the youngest player in the top 219.[2] The highlight of Tomic's career thus far has been a quarterfinal appearance at the 2011 Wimbledon Championships, which included a straight sets third round victory over the world Number 5 ranked player, Robin Söderling, before losing in four sets to eventual champion Novak Djokovic.

Personal life

Tomic was born in Stuttgart, Germany, on 21 October 1992.[3] Tomic's parents, John (Ivica) and Ady (Adisa), left Croatia, then a part of Yugoslavia,[4] several years before his birth.[5] In an interview, Tomic stated that his parents "have a Croatian background".[6] Other sources, such The Australian and The Guardian, have written that Tomic's parents are also of Bosnian heritage.[7][8] They were both working in Germany when Tomic was born. The family migrated to Queensland, Australia when Tomic was three years old.[9] His younger sister, Sara, is a junior tennis player.[10]

Junior career

In 2004 and 2006 respectively, Tomic won the 12s and 14s Orange Bowl titles – one of the most prestigious events on the junior tour.[11]

Playing his first singles event on the junior tour in 2006, he successfully qualified for the Sunsmart 18 and Under Canterbury Championships and went on to win the title, defeating Dae-Soung Oh of Korea 6–3, 6–2 in the final. His success continued, winning the next three tournaments he played in (one of which was also an 18 and under tournament), giving him a 25 match winning streak. Tomic was able to extend this streak to 26 at the Riad 21 junior tournament in Morocco before falling in the round of 16.[12]

Tomic did not win another tournament until August 2007, where he won the Oceania Closed Junior Championships without dropping a set. He was unable to continue his dominance at the Junior US Open, falling in the Round of 16. Following the US Open, Tomic picked up a second title in 2007 by winning the G1 in Kentucky. Tomic would then travel to Italy where he compiled an undefeated record in the Junior Davis Cup. Tomic lead Australia to winning the Junior Davis Cup final against Argentina with teammates Mark Verryth and Alex Sanders. Tomic finished 2007 with a junior world ranking of 23.[13]

Tomic began 2008 by winning Nottinghill, an Australian ITF Junior event in Melbourne without dropping a set. Two days later he started his campaign for the Australian Open Juniors title as the 5th seed. Tomic went on to win defeating the 25th, 11th, 8th and 1st seed before beating 10th seed Tsung-Hua Yang of Taiwan 4–6, 7–6, 6–0 in the final.[14] His win made him the youngest winner of the Australian Open Junior Boys' Championships in the Open Era.[15]

Four months later, at Roland Garros, Tomic, the number one seed, fell in the quarter finals to Guido Pella of Argentina, losing 6–7, 3–6. At Wimbledon, Tomic was again the number one seed, but fell in the semi-finals to Henri Kontinen 7–6, 6–4. In a notable quarter final match, Tomic played another rising star, Henrique Cunha of Brazil, and came through victorious in three sets 4–6, 6–4, 6–3. Tomic also finished runner-up in the Wimbledon Junior Boys' Doubles Championships with fellow Australian junior Matt Reid.

At the 2008 US Open (Boys' Singles), Tomic lost in the first round to Devin Britton of the United States in three sets.

At the 2009 Roland Garros he once again reached the quarter finals in the boy's single tournament and later once again reached the semi finals at Wimbledon. At the 2009 US Open (Boys' Singles), however, Tomic won the junior grandslam title, defeating Chase Buchanan of the United States 6–1, 6–3.

Professional career

2008

Bernard Tomic began 2008 at the Australian Open. He was given a place in the qualifiers where he played Yeu-Tzuoo Wang of Chinese Taipei in the first round.

After not getting past the second round in any of his tournaments so far, the then 15 year old Tomic had his breakthrough at the Indonesia F2 tournament in August. He beat Kittipong Wachiramanowong of Thailand 6–0, 7–6 in the first round. Hsien-Yin Peng of Chinese Taipei was eliminated by Tomic in the second round 6–1, 6–4. He won his quarter-final against Thailand's Peerakiat Siriluethaiwattana 6–3, 6–3. He advanced to the final without conceding a single set after defeating Kento Takeuchi of Japan 6–3, 6–1 in the semi-final. Japan's Yuichi Sugita ended his dream run, with Tomic losing 3–6, 7–6, 3–6 in the final.

He was involved in serious controversy in the Australia F12 tournament in December. He defeated fellow Australian James O'Brien 6–2, 6–1 in the first round.

Towards the end of 2008, Tomic stated that he would no longer compete in junior tournaments and focus solely on senior tournaments. In 2009, Tomic was given a wildcard into his first ATP event, the Brisbane International, where he lost to Fernando Verdasco in the first round, 6–4, 6–2. Bernard was granted a wildcard into the 2009 Australian Open and drew Potito Starace in round 1. He won the match, 7–6, 1–6, 7–6, 7–6, saving two set points in the 4th set tiebreak.

Tomic received wildcards into Australian Challenger tournaments in Burnie and Melbourne held in February. He reached the quarter-finals of Burnie before winning his first Challenger title in Melbourne.

Tomic earned a wildcard to the 2009 French Open but lost to Philipp Kohlschreiber in the first round, 1–6, 2–6, 2–6. Following the defeat Tomic decided to return to the junior tour to contest the Grand Slam tournaments in an attempt to hone his craft. Tomic reached the quarterfinals of the Roland Garros Juniors.

Tomic lost in the final round of Wimbledon qualifying to Édouard Roger-Vasselin. He contested the Junior tournament and made it to the semi-finals before being beaten by Andrey Kuznetsov.

Leading up to the US Open Tomic entered two ATP challenger qualifying tournaments in Vancouver and New York respectively in an attempt to receive a US Open wildcard.

Davis Cup

Tomic made his Davis Cup debut for Australia in Melbourne against Chinese Taipei in 2010. In the first rubber of the tie Tomic would defeat Yang Tsung-hua 6–2, 6–1, 6–1. In the fifth rubber he picked up another victory over Lee Hsin-han 6–7, 6–0, 6–3. Tomic was called back into the team in July 2011 for the tie against China. Following a shock loss in the first round Tomic drew Australia level in the second rubber of the tie against Zhang Ze 6–3, 5–7, 6–4, 6–4. Tomic's reverse singles match was cancelled due to Australia winning the tie 3–1.

In September 2011 at the Davis Cup World Group Playoffs Tomic pulled off the biggest scalp of his Davis Cup career to date by defeating the then 19th ranked Stanislas Wawrinka in four sets. Tomic was then given the chance to play his childhood hero in the reverse singles rubber. He was able to take a set off the then world ranked number 3 and 16 time Grand Slam champion Roger Federer but eventually lost the match in four sets and in doing so incurred the first loss of his Davis Cup career. Prior to the commencement of the 2012 ATP season Tomic and Lleyton Hewitt both committed to the Davis Cup team for all ties in a bid to re-enter the world group. In the second rubber of the first zonal tie against China, Tomic was victorious against Wu Di 6–4, 7–6, 6–3.

Controversies

In 2009, the International Tennis Federation suspended Tomic from playing ITF professional tournaments for a month after he walked off court in a game against Marinko Matosevic in a Perth Futures tournament in December 2008. Tomic was ordered to walk off the court by his father, who repeatedly accused officials of not taking action against Matosevic's alleged foot faults.[25][26]

In September 2009, reports began to surface about Tomic's team rejecting an invitational practice session with Lleyton Hewitt during the middle Sunday of Wimbledon.[27] Hewitt's manager David Drysdale stated:

We turned up and saw the Tomics around and we thought 'oh, maybe they got our message, and they were there to hit with Lleyton'. So Ivan (Gutierrez, Hewitt's physio) went over to Bernard's trainer at the time, Rudy (Sopko) and said 'Is Bernard here to hit?'. Rudy knew nothing of it but said 'Look, Bernard's looking for a practice partner and I think Bernard would like to do it', but then the agent came in and said, 'No, he's not hitting with Lleyton, Lleyton's not good enough'. They were his words: 'Lleyton's not good enough' and we just about dropped on the spot. We were pretty dumbfounded. Lleyton just could not believe it, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he got about it."[28]

Tomic's team cited Hewitt's different playing style as the reason for turning down the practice offer.[28] He was later seen requesting for a practice hit with former World Number 1 Juan Carlos Ferrero, but was subsequently turned down. A few weeks later Tomic revealed that he was forced to turn away the opportunity due to his own infection with swine flu. He further denied any approach to Ferrero as an alternative hitting partner, despite the Spanish tennis player's claim.[29][30]

In January 2010 The Australian newspaper reported that Tomic's father had threatened to quit Australia and have him play for Croatia. According to the paper, this threat was made during a heated argument between Tomic's father and the Australian Open Tournament Director, Craig Tiley, after Tomic's loss to Marin Čilić.[31]
