Updated November 05, 2012 17:38:16

Tennis player Bernard Tomic has been given a hefty fine for a series of traffic offences on the Gold Coast.

The 20-year-old has been ordered to pay a $750 good behaviour bond for failing to stop for police on Australia Day this year.

He has also been fined $1,000 for failing to keep left of double dividing lines and twice breaching licence conditions.

Speaking outside the Southport Magistrates Court this afternoon, Tomic said he was relieved the court proceedings were over.

"Now I can really focus on tennis and getting my tennis back to where it should be," he said.

No conviction was recorded.

Tomic says he is now focused on becoming one of the top 10 tennis players in the world.
