That wasn’t like defeating Nadal in a Roland Garros final.. but Bernard badly needs some confidence to get back to a decent tennis.
Tomic managed to win only 1 match in the last 6 to continuously crash in the first round of the last few tournaments, so defeating the world no.216 was still a good result.
Next vs. Benneteau
The next match will be definitely more difficult as the Australian will play a dangerous Benneteau that has defeated boom boom Anderson 7-6 (4) 6-2. Head to head is 2-1 Benneteau, but Bernard won the last match.
