Holger Rune is undergoing several changes within his team, as his mother has decided to take a step back. The young Danish player has experienced the departure of two important coaches, leading to his mother and manager reducing her involvement in attending matches.
Following a disappointing performance at the Australian Open, Rune ended his partnership with his former coach after just two months. This was followed by a surprising split with the legendary coach. With his team falling apart, the 20-year-old continued to participate in other tournaments with different coaches leading the way, while his mother focused on her managerial duties.
However, Rune’s mother was noticeably absent from his player box at the recent Rotterdam tournament, raising questions about her role within the team. During a media interview, the 20-year-old disclosed additional changes he had made to his team. Rune expressed that it was beneficial for his mother to only be present for important matches, while sitting out for the rest. In Rotterdam, he was managed by IMG instead of his mother, who typically handled his management duties and press meetings.
Holger Rune had gained attention as one of the promising players to watch in the 2024 season, following a strong comeback towards the end of 2023. However, he failed to meet expectations, suffering a second-round defeat at the Australian Open and a loss in the semi-finals of the Open Sud De France. Despite reaching the Rotterdam Open, he was unable to continue his winning streak, exiting in the second round.
Currently coached by Kenneth Carlsen, Rune has yet to comment on the future of his team, aside from confirming that his mother will not be present at every tournament. Following his loss in Rotterdam, the Danish star will be competing in Mexico next, hoping for a more successful run compared to his previous tournaments.
