Tomic fries Fish

Australian teenager Bernard Tomic has rallied from a set down to beat fifth seed Mardy Fish and advance to the the third round of the Shanghai Masters.

The 18-year-old won 4-6 6-1 6-4 to reverse last week’s loss to world No.9 Fish at the Japan Open.

The 49th-ranked Australian had only won one match previously against top 10 players, but levelled with two breaks in the second set and a single break in the ninth game of the decider to earn the win.

Tomic will next face Ukrainian Alexandr Dolgopolov for a spot in the quarterfinals.
