Holger Rune follows in the footsteps of Caroline Wozniacki
19-year-old Holger Rune has been making great strides in the 2022 season. The Dane, who is following in the footsteps of compatriot and former World No. 1 Caroline Wozniacki, won his maiden ATP title at the 2022 Bavarian International.
"I am ready to write history in Danish and international tennis, just as Caroline Wozniacki has done. It must be time that we can also have a Danish men's player as the best in the world. I will undertake that task," Rune had said earlier in the year according to Ekstra Bladet.
Rune, who is currently ranked World No. 25, also reached his maiden Grand Slam quarterfinal at the 2022 French Open, where he was the boys’ singles champion in 2019. In recent weeks, the Dane has featured in two back-to-back finals at the Sofia Open and the Stockholm Open, winning the latter to clinch his second career ATP title.
Wozniacki has been appreciative of the teenager’s success and has been closely following it.
"I think he's a very hard-working person. So I see a bright future for him," the former World No. 1 had once said.
