Local favourite Bernard Tomic has wasted no time qualifying for round two of the Australian Open with a quick-fire win over Leonardo Mayer.
Tomic took just over 90 minutes to record a straight-sets win over Mayer earlier today with a mix of strong serving and fine passing shots.
Mayer lost a break early in the first set and swam against the tide throughout as Tomic was cheered on by a passionate home crowd.
The 20-year-old dropped just eight games in total on the way to a 6-3 6-2 6-3 victory, setting up a second-round clash with either Dudi Sela or Nikolay Davydenko later this week.
