Bernard Tomic still plans to shake off a back complaint and try to qualify for the Australian Open for the third time in four years. The controversy magnet withdrew from the final of a low-key UTR Pro Tennis Series event in his home city of Brisbane in the past fortnight because of the back issue. However, Tomic - now ranked 226 in the world, after peaking at No. 17 at the start of 2016 - is part of a 20-strong Australian contingent down to compete in Open qualifying from January 10-13. He fell in the first round of qualifying in 2020 and the final round in 2018.
