Bernard Tomic pairs an early peak with a 2026 Challenger revival
Bernard Tomic was the youngest Australian Open boys' champion at 15, reached the 2011 Wimbledon quarterfinal as an 18-year-old and later climbed to world No. 17. He owns four ATP singles titles, including back-to-back Bogota trophies and Chengdu in 2018. His career then moved largely to the Challenger and ITF circuits, but 2026 supplied a concrete revival. At age 33, Tomic saved his best title run in years for Lincoln, defeating Mark Lajal 4-6, 7-6, 7-6 in the final. ATP described it as his biggest trophy since Chengdu, a result that made him reconsider plans to retire.
