Sense of humility. Right.. bucketloads of it

The kid won't beat Fed (well, I don't think he will, who knows?), but some of these comments are hilarious, talk about clueless!

Sorry, can't see Tomic being ranked higher than the Federer, Djokovic, Murray, Ferrer, Berdych (replace it with Nadal if he comes back) quintet anytime in the nearest future.

In 2 years from now, Tomic will probably be a top 20 player, probably have stints in the top 10 but he won't be in the top 5. See: Gasquet.

He's got a pretty sweet gig now. Flirt with Mary Joe and McHendry; mess with Fowler and PMac.

Do you really think he wants to have to deal with Daddy Tomic?

selling ad space, that's all.

guys. it's australian open time, of course they're going to hype up the local boy, especially as the elite ATP aussies are either out of the tournament or retired.

during US Open we'll here about all of the americans who will be the future of tennis and will bring NBA / NFL style juicing, sorry, i mean athleticism, to the game. it's called media hype.

Bold Predictions. We all know what happened to Martin Klizan after his first ATP tour title last year.
