MELBOURNE (Reuters) - Tennis Australia head of performance Wally Masur has warned Bernard Tomic to be prepared for the grind of the minor tours if he fails to win a match at the U.S. Open.

The former world number 17's ranking has crashed to 146 in an extended absence since Wimbledon, where he said he was "bored" with tennis after a first round defeat to Mischa Zverev.
