MELBOURNE, Australia – Open Court is told that Genie Bouchard will play the Australian Open mixed doubles with …
Are you ready for this?
He’s an “ic”. But not “Raonic”.
Not “Djokovic”.
Aussie Bernard Tomic.
The only slight hurdle is that because of Tomic’s current ranking, they will need a wild card.
Can’t see any reason that wouldn’t happen.
Tomic has paired up with a top foreign player before; a couple of years ago he joined forces with Jelena Jankovic in what, well, wasn’t exactly the best mixed doubles ever played. But at least Jankovic seemed to get a kick out of the then teenaged Bernie.
