Tennis Australia says it will reach out to Bernard Tomic in the next week or so to “clear the air” and hopes to have him back on-side for September’s Davis Cup semi-final.
President Steve Healy says TA is concerned for the 22-year-old Tomic, following his arrest in Miami for failing to follow police orders to quieten down his penthouse party.
It came on the eve of Australia’s Davis Cup quarter-final tie against Kazakhstan, from which Tomic was suspended after unleashing a verbal tirade against TA following his Wimbledon exit.
“We want to offer Bernard the opportunity to raise the issues he has raised, so we can address those with him,” Healy said at opening of the new Tennis ACT Centre in Canberra on Tuesday.
