Lleyton Hewitt is tired of trying to bring Bernard Tomic into the Davis Cup fold. The fiery Aussie had a go at Tomic, who said that Australia wouldn’t be able to win without him, and said that it is “highly doubtful” that Tomic will ever play for the Green and Gold again.Tomic was boasting while on the African set of an Australian Reality show "I'm a Celebrity, Get Me out of Here."
Reportedly his teammates did not take offense, but it appears that Hewitt has hit a tipping point.
"We can't do any more, believe me,” he said at a press conference ahead of this weekend’s Davis Cup tie with Germany. “The last two years has been hard work for a lot of people, we've bent over backwards to help Bernie in so many ways.”
"At the end of the day you've got to want to help yourself as well, we can only hand out an olive branch and you've got to be willing to take that. … He's digging a big hole for himself that he may not be able to get out of."
