Holger Rune started the season outside the Top 100 and as things stand, is on the brink of entering the Top 10. He didn’t have the best start to the season but after the US Open, he has proved himself to be a serious contender in all the tournaments he has played. He made it to the final of the Sofia Open and then won the Stockholm Open two weeks later where he stunned the likes of Cameron Norrie and Stefanos Tsitsipas. He then once again had a runner-up finish at the Swiss Indoors where he lost to Felix Auger-Aliassime.

This week in the Paris Masters, he defeated Stan Wawrinka in the first round before beating 4 Top 10 players in the next four matches- Hubert Hurkacz, Andrey Rublev, Carlos Alcaraz, and Felix Auger-Aliassime.

Novak Djokovic is currently the best player despite rankings showing otherwise. He has had a fair share of bad fortune this season due to his vaccination status which forced him to miss a few big tournaments including the Australian Open, the US Open, and all Masters tournaments in North-America. He won the Rome Masters, Wimbledon, Tel Aviv Open, and the Astana Open this year.

At Bercy this week, he dominated the initial rounds where he defeated Maxime Cressy, Karen Khachanov, and Lorenzo Musetti. In the semifinals, he defeated Stefanos Tsitsipas in three sets 6-2,3-6,7-6(4).

Holger Rune vs Novak Djokovic: Prediction

Djokovic will start as the favorite and will back himself to win a record 7th title at Bercy. He has been amazing all tournament and once again displayed hi clutch mentality in the semifinal. He has the perfect game for fast courts but will be wary of Rune’s confidence and ball-hitting ability. The Danish teenager has nothing to lose and hence will go all guns blazing against Djokovic. Expect a thrilling encounter with Djokovic edging past Rune to win yet another Masters title.

Prediction: Djokovic to win in three sets.
