Former world No. 17 Bernard Tomic has won his second consecutive title at the 15k ITF event in Cancun.

In the Cancun final, 660th-ranked Tomic defeated Alexander Cozbinov 7-6 (5) 6-3.

Two weeks ago, Tomic captured his first title since 2018 in Cancun.

Now, Tomic has won his last 10 matches and has back-to-back Cancun titles in his collection.

En route to winning Cancun this week, Tomic didn't drop a single set.

Tomic also won Cancun two weeks without dropping a set. 

In recent weeks, Tomic decided to return to the ITF level.

That decision has been paying off as he has been winning matches and his confidence levels have certainly increased. 

Tomic got into it again with Nick Kyrgios

Earlier this year, Kyrgios challenged Tomic to a one-million match.

This week, a fan asked Kyrgios if he was interested in playing against Tomic. 

"The exhibition against Tomic going to happen," a fan asked Kyrgios on Instagram. 

Kyrgios answered: "TBH (to be honest), don't think I wanna make him relevant anymore. I'm not gonna bother with someone 800 in the world. But all the best."

Shortly later, Tomic held his own Q&A with fans on Instagram.

Several fans asked Tomic to address Kyrgios' latest comments and he suggested that Kyrgios was scared of facing him. 

"Just a matter of time I see you, Nicky boy," Tomic wrote on Instagram as his response, along with hashtag words "obsessed" and "scared."

Earlier this year, Tomic said he was training hard and determined to return to his old level.

Tomic, who is turning 30 later this month, is often posting practice videos on his Instagram.

Tomic maybe isn't anymore a regular participant of the main level events, but he is working hard and slowly finding his game again.

It remains to be seen if Tomic will now try to play some Challenger or ATP events.
