Holger Rune and Patrick Mouratoglou

Danish World No.8 Holger Rune showed more clarity on his decision to step away from the guidance of Patrick Mouratoglou. The Danish wunderkind described the short stint of six months with Mouratoglou as instructive and funny. Rune also said that there were no issues in particular and he has been in touch with Frenchman ever since his childhood.

As Rune wrote in the press release, “We had the opportunity to have Patrick with us for a limited period and we had six informative and fun months. We will take advantage of this learning to tackle the season on clay, where three Masters 1000 and a Grand Slam await us. The Mouratoglou Academy and Patrick are part of our organization, as they have been since I was 13.

The stint under Mouratoglou was really good in terms of results for the Danish player. His first triumph in an ATP-1000 tournament also happened under Mouratoglou’s guidance. It was during the Paris Masters 2022 that he overcame Novak Djokovic in a three-set thriller. Following that title, Rune has not really lived up to the expectations.

Despite losing in the pre-quarterfinals of the Australian Open 2023Holger Rune has enough time left to come back stronger. He will try to start fresh in the clay court season after the third-round and fourth-round exits in the Sunshine Double tournaments. The Danish 19-year-old had his best season in 2022.

His meteoric rise reached new heights after making an impressive comeback to defeat Novak Djokovic in the finals of the Paris Masters 2022. However, before his incredible Parisian run, the up-and-rising Danish showcased distinctive form in other important tournaments.

Holger won the title in the Stockholm Open beating Stefanos Tsitsipas in straights. Then he reached the finals in the Basel Open before losing to Felix Auger Aliassime. After that, he started the 2022 Paris Masters tournament ranked as World No.18. The Danish teen will be looking to regain the charm in the coming months keeping in mind his magnificent 2022 run.
