Already struggling to maintain a positive public image after criticising Tennis Australia a few weeks ago, the details of Tomic's arrest have fuelled negative perceptions towards the 22-year-old.
Check out some of the reaction here:
Tomic is about to get pulvarised when Australia wakes up.... #cmonman
— Andrew Bogut (@andrewbogut) July 16, 2015You have to hand it to Bernard Tomic. Whenever he sees his ranking as Australian tennis' #1 idiot threatened, he really kicks it up a gear.
— Adam Liaw (@adamliaw) July 16, 2015Sources say Bernard Tomic resisted arrest briefly before just giving up and sulking.

Stayed on Miami Beach with a screaming jet lagged 1 yr old last week. At the time I thought how could this be worse. Thank you Bernard Tomic
