Bernard Tomic says he was offered millions of dollars to play tennis for other countries and remains amazed he has done so well in the sport given how little effort he sometimes puts in. In a wide-ranging interview with the Seven Network's Sunday Night program, the troubled star was again unapologetic for the way he played tennis and lived his life.

Millions that people could only imagine,' he said without elaborating on which countries or when the offers were made. 'And, you know, I never did that. I stayed loyal to Australia at the time I thought about it. The money was insane.' Tomic, who has slid down the rankings from a high of number 17 to number 73 after a year of lacklustre displays, came under fire most recently at Wimbledon where he lost a first-round match in straight sets and admitted to putting in little effort.

'Pat's said a lot of bad things about me, throughout my career, and, you know, he's always perceived as this nice guy, and this image,' said Tomic.

'People don't know him in the back of closed doors. He's not that much of a nice guy he likes to put on a show.' He conceded the Davis Cup side was better off without him — at least until he worked out what he really wanted. Tomic also felt he was 'trapped' by the sport because he'd earned a good living from it. 'It's affected me a little bit mentally and emotionally,' he said. 'So now it's just about finding my balance and pushing on the next 10 years and being successful even more. Hampshire Tsharc Drivers. ' AAP Topics:,, First posted July 24, 2017 09:47:47.
