    Tomic dumped by IMG; rapper Drake pissed at Kyrgios

    May as well just crown this one the next Phillippoussis.


    EMBATTLED Australian tennis star Bernard Tomic has reportedly been dumped by global management company IMG. News emerged today that the agency had terminated its lucrative contract with the 21-year-old before it was due to expire.
    Tomic first signed with IMG as a 12-year-old, spawning marketing deals potentially worth millions of dollars with the likes of Nike, Yonex, Optus and Qantas.
    While the one-time Wimbledon quarter-finalist has fallen outside the top 100, it’s understood Tomic’s off-court behaviour was behind the split, according to the Sports Business Journal and tennisworldusa.org.

    RISING Australian tennis star Nick Kyrgios has become embroiled in a feud with rapper Drake.
    It all started when Kyrgios – who rose to fame with a shock defeat of Rafael Nadal on the way to the Wimbledon quarter-finals – blamed Drake for nearly losing earlier in the tournament.
    Kyrgios listens to music before matches, and chose to listen to Drake before a 3-6 6-3 7-5 6-2 victory against Jiri Vesily in the third round.

    “I came out really flat, so hopefully I won’t listen to that again. It was actually Drake. Didn’t do the job for me,” Kyrgios said after the win.
    Drake wasn’t happy with the criticism and hit back at the 19-year-old, saying no one will ever remember Kyrgios’ name.
    “I also want to meet this guy that says that he lost because he listened to my music,” Drake said, slightly getting his facts wrong.

    “I also want to meet that guy and look him in the eye and see exactly who he is as a man and size him up and then chop him right down.
    “Nick whatever-his-name-is’ — because he didn’t win, so that’s how he’s going to be remembered: ‘Nick whatever-his-name-is.’”
    Kyrgios responded on Twitter this morning, saying he was still a fan of Drake.

    Let's be clear. I like @Drake - love his music, just said I was a little flat, ended up winning that match. No blame game here.

    I wouldn't pick a fight with him. Saw him in person when he was just 18 and dude has a presence to him. Even at that age.

    Drake is a hack. Typical behavior. Don't care about actually knowing the story, someone mentioned me so I better pretend to be a hard ass.

    Nobody told him to listen to what he listened to, was it your first time listening to whichever song you listened to, basically he's saying he would have beat Nadal in 3 sets I guess, serve bots should stay in their lane.

    Definitely not the second one. Not yet at least. Give him a year or two and I might be starting a thread calling Nick the same thing lol. I don't think so though. Neither of his parents are wankers for starters.

    Poor Bernie was even the focus of articles during Wimbledon in national Aussie newspapers called "Why we no longer have to care about Tomic" and "Bernie who? Why Tomic's time is over." From the same journos pumping him up @ the 2011 AO. They're ruthless.

    If he wasn't such a prick (Tomic), he'd get more of a pass ... but the guy who became the next thing in Australia after Hewitt needed some likeability. Kyrgiois is that. I also still want to see if Kokkanakis can amount to anything. I think he needs to grow into his frame and he might at least be a threat at some point on hard courts.

    I hope you are right. Kokka was initially tipped to be the better of the two as well.
