Bernard Tomic (/ˈtɒmɪk/; Croatian: Bernard Tomić,[1] pronounced [běrnard tômitɕ, tǒː-]; born 21 October 1992) is an Australian professional tennis player. His career-high ranking is world No. 17.

As a junior, Tomic enjoyed a successful career in which he won an Orange Bowl title and two junior Grand Slam singles titles, the 2008 Australian Open and 2009 US Open.

As a professional, he has won the 2013 Sydney International, 2014 and 2015 Colombia Open, as well as the 2018 Chengdu Open. He made a final appearance at the 2016 Mexican Open and a quarterfinal appearance at the 2011 Wimbledon Championships, the 2015 Indian Wells Open, the 2015 Shanghai Masters, and the 2016 Western & Southern Open.

In January 2018, Tomic was revealed as a celebrity contestant on the fourth season of the Australian version of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here![2] On 30 January 2018, Tomic withdrew from the competition after three days, owing to feeling uncomfortable and depressed, thus making him one of the shortest-lived contestants on the show globally.[3]

Throughout his career, Tomic has been known for his controversial behaviour, including legal issues, altercations with officials and fans, and accusations of tanking during events.
