Tomic refuses Tennis Australia meeting

Bernard Tomic does not intend to accept the offer of "clear the air" talks with Tennis Australia until his sister Sara's funding is reinstated.

The 22-year-old, Australia's highest-ranked men's player, was dropped from the Davis Cup team after criticising TA for a lack of support.

He said he did not believe there was any point in a meeting "until I am satisfied TA is committed to funding the development of junior Australian talent, including my sister Sara, on a non-discriminatory basis".

Tomic, who was arrested in Miami recently after an incident at a hotel, has a difficult relationship with Australian tennis' governing body.
