Top seed Bernard Tomic has made a disappointing exit from the BRD Nastase Tiriac Trophy in Bucharest, beaten in the round of 16 by Robin Haase.

Tomic went down 7-6 (7-4) 5-7 6-3 to the Dutchman who is ranked 64th in the world, 43 spots lower than the Australian.

The Queenslander, who was granted a wild card in the tournament, was returning to competition after a wrist injury forced him to retire from his match against Milos Raonic at last month's BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells.
