Bernard Tomic’s first night in Memphis was a memorable one, as the World No. 36 attended an NBA Basketball game featuring the Memphis Grizzlies versus the Denver Nuggets this past Friday evening.
Joined by his father and friends, Tomic had the opportunity to meet the team captains from both franchises prior to tipoff, before indulging in premier seating courtside. The Grizzlies went on to stun the Nuggets, when Dante Cunningham tipped in a missed shot to put home team ahead 103-102 with less than second left. “The game was really exciting,” Tomic told ATPWorldTour.com.
“It's the first time I've been in Memphis, so it was a good opportunity to watch the Grizzlies play. I enjoyed myself and what a game it was.”
The 19-year-old Australian will make his debut at the Regions Morgan Keegan Championships, and has his eye on reaching the final weekend. “It feels nice here. It's a really nice tournament, so hopefully I can do well and get deep in the tournament, so that's my goal here,” Tomic said.
Seeded eighth, Tomic will begin his quest for a first ATP World Tour title when he takes on Ivan Dodig.
