Holger Rune was plagued with a back injury in the middle of the season. This injury took a toll on his performance at the bigger stages which were held later this year.

She asks him to learn from his mistakes and look forward to next season.

Here’s what Aneke Rune said: “Looking back I would never have imagined it was so much harder to consolidate a position than getting it. The journey is so new still, we learn all the time and yet you accomplished so much already, Holger Rune. The experience and wisdom we bring into 2024 is precious. I look forward. Now it?s time to relax with the family and then do a lot of planning for next year,”

Aneke Rune also expressed her gratitude to his team for supporting her son throughout the season. She appreciated them for helping Rune to make his debut in the ATP Finals. Holger Rune had expressed his contentment with his performance this season and mentioned there is always room for improvement. He now looks forward to overcome this loss in Turin and start focusing on the next season.

The inclusion of the 55-year-old German former number 1 in tennis, Boris Becker at the later stages of the season had put wind in the sails of Holger Rune. Becker made an instant impact by helping Rune reach the SFs of the Swiss Indoors and QFs of Paris Masters. These results eventually helped Rune to book his ticket to Turin for the season-ending championship.
