Tomic out to top Hewitt effort

Bernard Tomic will make his Court One debut at Wimbledon today hoping to succeed where the man he has replaced as the main hope of Australian tennis failed.

Lleyton Hewitt, once a young firebrand in the mould of Tomic, won Wimbledon in 2002 but was knocked out at the second-round stage on Thursday, beaten in five sets by fifth seed Robin Soderling despite taking a 2-0 lead.
