Bernard Tomic probably wasn't going to be remembered for his tennis skills at this year's U.S. Open.
The 23-year-old Australian will, however, be remembered for something he'd rather not be. Tomic, the tournament's 17th seed, went on multiple foul-mouthed tirades during his first round match after a heckler got under his skin. Among many other questionable things, Tomic told the heckler, "suck my b***s" and called him a "p***y."

Chair umpire Cedric Mourier asked Tomic about his behavior, to which Tomic replied, "He was saying some s**t." The whole thing was captured by microphones at the Granstand Court in Flushing Meadows, N.Y. and here's some of it:
"I will put my b***s in your mouth and I will give you some money to make you feel good," Tomic told the man, who was escorted off the grounds after the first set.
Tomic went on to lose the match to Damir Dzumhur 6-4, 6-3, 4-6, 7-6 (7/0). Afterwards, he apologized to the media for his outburst.
