Good riddance to Tomic. His smashing the racquet after he lost and before he shook hands with Goffin showed what lack of class he has. Him and his ilk (Balkan state migrants) are amongst the most smug and arrogant people in Australia. Tomic's antics on and off court just demonstrate why basically everyone else hates them.

Here's to him getting a few more lessons in humility to buck his ideas up so he can become the player he should be.

Can Tomic win one of the slams in the future ?

Apparently Goffin has played Tomic in the Juniors and always beaten him, so..

Tomic will drop nearly 20 spots in the rankings

Watched most of the match against Nishikori (I happen to be a fan of both players so I made sure I was around to watch it), disappointed at Tomic's apparent lack of urgency even when he was behind in the crucial second set tiebreak. Seemed content to just pat it around and hope Nishikori would make errors. His attitude particularly in that tiebreak seemed to indicate he wanted the match to finish rather than fight his way back into it. Needs to alter his attitude a bit among other things (movement was poor enough too!) if he wants to improve.

Just my opinion, no expert here :P
