Bernard Tomic advances to second round of Australian Open for the first time since 2017 – Wide World of Sports
Best result in years sets up big pay day
Australian tennis bad boy Bernard Tomic has advanced to the second round of the Australian Open for the first time since 2017, earning himself a minimum of $150,000 in the process.
The 28-year-old was piggy-backed to the next stage by Japan’s Yuichi Sugita, who was forced to retire due to injury during the third set. By that point Tomic had seized a commanding position in the match, fighting back after dropping the first set to lead 3-6 6-1 4-1.
