Bernard Tomic (Croatian: Bernard Tomić, born 21 October 1992 in Stuttgart, Germany) is an Australian professional tennis player who is currently ranked World No. 768.
Junior tennis
Playing since the age of 7, Tomic is considered by many as Australia's best player since Lleyton Hewitt. This statement has helped give Tomic greater belief in his abilities. In 2004, 2006 and 2007 he won the 12s, 14s and 16s Orange Bowl titles respectively; one of the most prestigious events on the junior tour.
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 Samuel Vonton-Boot of New Zealand 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.
Tomic wasn't to win another tournament until August 2007, where he took out 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. Tomic finished 2007 with a junior world ranking of 23.
He began 2008 by winning Nottinghill, an Australian ITF Junior event in Melbourne, again 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 Chinese Taipei 4-6, 7-6(5), 6-0 in the final. His win made him the youngest winner of the Australian Open Junior Boys' Championships in the Open Era.
Four months later, at Roland Garros, Tomic, the number one seed, fell in the quarter finals to Guido Pella of Argentina, losing 6-7(2), 3-6. At Wimbledon, Tomic was again the number one seed, but fell in the semi-finals to Henri Kontinen 7-6(3), 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.
2009
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 (5), 1-6, 7-6 (5), 7-6 (6), saving two set points in the 4th set tiebreak. He became the youngest ever male tennis player to win a senior Australian Open Grand Slam match. Tears were shed upon winning this match. In the second round he is currently playing against Gilles Müller (LUX).
