Serious injury for Holger Rune

The desperation in Holger Rune’s eyes was already visible during the semifinals of the Stockholm tournament, when, after feeling pain in the area of his left ankle, he sat on the bench, unable to walk.

Now came the confirmation: the Dane, during the match, in which moreover he was ahead by a set, against Frenchman Ugo Humbert, suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon and will have to undergo surgery; a long stop is looming for him.

Confirming this, Rune himself with a post on his social profiles: “It will take a while’ before he can return to the court. It&#8217s tough. I had so much joy on the court in Stockholm and it is unbearable to think that I won&#8217t feel this energy for a while.”

“My d’Achilles tendon is completely ruptured, I will have to have surgery as early as next week and start rehabilitation from there. Thank you for all your support, now and always. Without you it would not be the same. See you soon”.
