Boris Becker opens up about his decision to coach Holger Rune 

While the 20-year-old Danish tennis player has been struggling a lot on the court, Becker has decided to take matters into his own hands. Djokovic’s ex-coach recently made a huge revelation about joining Rune’s coaching team. After this announcement, in an interview with Eurosport, he also revealed the reason behind joining hands with the former world number four.

He said, “The question is: how quickly do you find your way back into the match, are you focused again? In the end, it’s not about sending your mother out of the stands, but winning the match. I love tennis and when one of the best 20-year-olds in the world asks me if I’d like to coach him… anyone who says no doesn’t have much to do with the sport.”

However, Becker himself raised a lot of questions regarding how Rune could make his way back into the match. Along with that, he also made a sarcastic comment regarding how winning a match is more important than debating over a matter.
