Keeping this tradition rolling, the Danish star Holger Rune, who achieved a remarkable feat in this year’s Wimbledon Championships, had his parents as a pillar of support during his fourth-round clash.

Rune defeated Grigor Dimitrov to reach the quarter-finals of a Grand Slam for the first time in his career. In the post-match conference, he revealed how his family enjoyed his win and who he relies on the most for support.
