Bernard Tomic Wears a Hat. Twitter Reacts Accordingly.

By Lindsay on January 16, 2013

Bernard Tomic is currently locked in a tight match with Daniel Brands. He is also wearing a hat:

In case you haven’t seen it, this is how the #BernieGOAT is wearing a hat today: twitter.com/juanjo_sports/…

— Juan José (@juanjo_sports) January 17, 2013

This is what #BernieGOAT‘s hat looks like when he waves his hands angrily at something: twitter.com/juanjo_sports/…

— Juan José (@juanjo_sports) January 17, 2013

Twitter is alarmed:

Bernard Tomic’s head seems to be rejecting that hat like some sort of immune system reaction. #ausopen

— Ben Rothenberg (@BenRothenberg) January 17, 2013

Tomic looks so stupid with that hat -.-

— Amy (@AmyRG06) January 17, 2013

And I thought I looked bad in a hat when playing tennis… #tomic

@just_coops Far too large, it’s pretty much a snapback. #tomicswag

— Matt Johnson (@MattJohnsonTSub) January 17, 2013

#Tomic, that hat looks stupid on you #7sport #ausopen

— Nicholas Phillpott (@biancorosso7) January 17, 2013

Bernard Tomic, your hat is crooked #ausoepn

— Mike McCue (@mccuemike) January 17, 2013

Tomic fends off BP, leads 3-2. Both men looking relatively relaxed. Tho Tomic is hooking his FH DTL at a funny angle, much like his hat.

Tomic is a wanker, he wears a wankers hat #AusOpen

— Jake Choules (@JakeChoulesy12) January 15, 2013

tomic seriously wearing his hat like that?#stillmyboy

— Kurt Stubenrauch (@stubenrauchk) January 17, 2013

can someone please tell Tomic that his head is too big for that hat and that he has it on crooked?! #itsannoyingme

— Anastasia Hasapis (@AnastasiaHasapi) January 17, 2013

Not sure how I feel about Tomic’s Donald Young-style slightly-askew baseball hat. #ausopen

— Matthew Laird (@MatchPointAce) January 17, 2013

Tomic is wearing his hat kind of sideways and he looks so G #ausopen

— Hayley (@vivala_hayley) January 17, 2013

What’s with Tomic’s hat? He looks like he should be licking windows. #ausopen

— K Beats (@KJ_Beats) January 17, 2013

I miss Donald Young’s hat. #berniehat #ausopen

— Beyond The Baseline (@SI_BTBaseline) January 17, 2013

Watching him play w/his pseudo-trucker hat askew, I wonder: how long before someone submits a pic of Bernie & his GF to hotchickswithdouchebags.com

— Ana Mitrić (@ana_mitric) January 17, 2013

By wearing what appears to be at old-timey train conductor’s hat, Tomic further embraces his “Tank Engine” nickname.

— Ryan Crinnigan (@RyanCrinnigan) January 17, 2013

Ok, saw the hat. It’s like the Portrait of Dorian Gray. It reveals his interior life. #tomic

— BadToss (@BadToss) January 17, 2013

Tomic’s head is too big to wear a hat. Both physically and ego-wise. #AO13

— Erik Gudris (@ATNtennis) January 17, 2013

If Tomic advances, here’s a hat he could wear in the third round. twitter.com/bclark7/status…

— Brian Clark (@bclark7) January 17, 2013

I think #Tomic is losing cos hit hat is sitting too high on his head. Just a theory

— Tom Christiansen (@TAChristiansen) January 17, 2013

I wonder if Bernard Tomic realises his hat is slightly off centre. Get it sorted, Bernard.

— Riley Beveridge (@RileyBev) January 17, 2013

That hat.He must have lost a bet.

— Chris P (@scoobschris) January 17, 2013

#BernieGOAT‘s hat is as concerned as he is about how this Brands match is going: twitter.com/juanjo_sports/…
