The two-time junior Grand Slam winner is ranked 220 in the world, but remains confident he can crack the ATP top 100 this year. 'I’m not gonna comment about that,' Tomic said when quizzed about the police probe surrounding two matches he played in 2021 and 2022.

'Tennis keeps me alive, keeps me sane, gives me something to do. Without tennis, you lose your purpose. 'To finish the year in the top 100 would be great. We’ll see how we go. A lot has changed in tennis - my expectations can’t be too high. I have to be realistic.'.
