Bernard Tomic has been in trouble with the police a lot lately. However, it now seems to be getting quite serious. Bernard Tomic faces jail time and a $20,000 fine.
He was charged with evading police after he allegedly refused to stop and later barricaded himself in his parents’ Gold Coast, Queensland, home on Jan. 26.
The charge carries a maximum penalty of three years in prison and a $20,000 fine but his high-profile criminal lawyer Chris Nyst called the charges “little more than a storm in a tea cup.”
He is due to appear in the Southport Magistrates Court on February 14 to face the charges

Is Serena Williams dating Grigor Dimitrov? Well it seems like the paid were having a romanic lunch together at L’Avenue, and then left together for a romantic stroll on the streets of Paris. Oh.. and then they visited the Eiffel Tower together. Definitely a date!

Victoria Azarenka had time after winning the Australian Open 2012 to fly to the USA just so she could do the chat show tour. Here is Victoria on the Ellen DeGeneres Show.
Melissa Cook is the diehard Novak Djokovic fan who had his sweaty shirt ripped from her grasp at the Australian Open 2012 final. The shirt was snatched by a woman standing nearby the 14 year old.
“I started crying because I couldn’t believe that something I truly believe he meant for me was taken by someone else,” the tearful teen said.
“I had been yelling out to him the whole match and he had looked up and acknowledged me and then at the end he came straight over to my direction and threw the shirt up.”
Honestly I think it is all a load of crap. Why would anyone believe Novak wanted them to specifically have their sweaty shirt.. plus more importantly why would anyone want his sweaty shirt!
Novak Djokovic had an amazing Australian Open 2012 and it was capped off with a win in the final over Rafael Nadal 5-7 6-4 6-2 6-7 7-5. Novak is again the top of the world and has now won the last three Grand Slam titles in a row.
Unlike other tennis news sources Im not going to give you a big run down of the final. Instead you can head to: Bleacher Report | BBC
I would much rather show you some private Novak Djokovic photos after the win.
Victoria Azarenka is the new world number 1 and Australian Open 2012 womens singles champion!
Sharapova got an early 2-0 lead, but since then has struggled to win a game. Sharapova has just sat at the baseline and hit out for the whole match without success. Azarenka has been out hitting Sharapova from the baseline, but Sharapova has never even thought about changing her game plan.
Azarenka has been so pumped up throughout and claimed the title 6-3 6-0.
Poor old Rafael Nadal broke down to tears when he injured his knee before the Australian Open 2012. Its amazing what a few weeks can do and a shit load of pain killers!
“I explained that after my match on the first, what happened the Sunday before on my knee, something very strange,” he said. ”But that’s why, because Sunday afternoon, 24 hours to play my first match, I was in my room crying because I believe I didn’t had the chance to play Melbourne. So it was a very, very tough situation for me, these hours. Two weeks later I am here in the finals, so is a dream for me because having very bad expectations 24 hours before the first match, and now two weeks later I am playing well.”
I’m sitting here watching the Australian Open 2012 semifinal between Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic and couldn’t really believe what I was seeing. Firstly, Andy Murray got off to a poor start but then he came back and just secured the third set, which put him ahead 2 sets to 1. However, in typical Murray fashion he has now been broken twice at the beginning of the fourth set and is down 4-0. Murray, why do I always expect you to choke in the big moments?
I really think whoever wins this match is going to lose in the final to Rafael Nadal. Nadal is just going to have way to much fight for either Murray or Djokovic.
