Well, since Tomic is Australian I'd go for the Croat, Cilic.

If anything, TennisAustralia should hire those brave souls to keep the Cro Nazis on a leash. Can never be too safe when dealing with Nazis.

lol douchebag. We don't use that word in Oz but I don't mind it. It's just imagination but this one is much like how I picture Zvone with that kind of expression. Dude also needs an injection of testosterone.

Wow what a game! www.theage.com.au/sport/tennis/tomic-loses-second-round-marathon-20100121-mm13.htmlTomic loses second round marathon WILL BRODIE January 21, 2010 - 2:22AM Bernard Tomic reacts after winning the third set. Photo: Vince Caligiuri Deep into Thursday morning, seventeen year-old Australian wunderkind Bernard Tomic proved the hype about his future is well-founded, after a fierce battle with Croatian number 14 seed Marin Cilic for a place in the third round of the Australian Open. Cilic eventually won the grinding three hour, 48 minute marathon 6-7, 3-6, 4-6, 6-2, 6-4 at 2.08am Cilic broke the Tomic serve in the ninth game of the deciding set to take a 5-4 lead. Tomic fought out the match to the end, with several long rallies in the final game, but the more experienced baseliner had the winners when it mattered. After a nine-minute eighth game, Cilic eventually held his serve to level up the epic clash 4-4. Tomic twice held break points, and if he had converted, he would have been serving for victory. At 1.40am, Tomic won the fifth game to take a 3-2 lead in the deciding set, after a ten minute battle to hold his serve that went to deuce several times. Despite sapping, hard-hitting 20-shot rallies, the young Australian was still finding reserves of skill and energy as the match stretched beyond 200 minutes. Tomic, ranked 289, was a $4.70 outsider with Betfair to win the match as it went into its fifth and deciding set, but the tenacious Queenslander had already bounced back from losing the second set, exceeding expectations with his stamina in pushing his 21 year-old opponent. Tomic hit only four aces, compared to the 198cm Croat's 25, but his persistent ground shots kept him in the match, and his ability to rejuvenate himself after suffering disappointments surprised Cilic, who made the fourth round of this tournament last year. Tomic hit only 33 winners, compared to Cilic's 91, but he made fewer unforced errors (63-70), and his consistency, resolve and maturity, backed by the hardy remnants of the evening session crowd at Rod Laver Arena, saw the match go the distance. The second round epic followed a thrilling, high-class women's clash earlier in the evening, won by Belgium's second comeback star Justine Henin over Russian former semi-finalist Elena Dementieva, 7-5, 7-6 (8-6). Their match, worthy of a final, lasted two hours and fifty minutes.
