‘WHAT THE HELL..’ – Holger Rune’s Strange Appearance at ATP Montpellier Leaves Tennis Fans Completely Amused

Holger Rune recently earned his 100th tour-level victory in his career. More than this incredible feat, however, Rune’s hairstyle has caught the eyes of many. The 20-year-old Danish tennis star recently defeated Spain’s Pablo Llamas Ruiz by 7-5,6-2 in the second round of the Open Sud de France.

It took Rune only 1 hour and 26 minutes to secure his spot at the QF of the tournament at Court Patrice Dominguez on Friday. But it took seconds for fans to start trolling this youngster for his new hairstyle.

Fans chuckle, one draws a parallel between Holger Rune’s new hairstyle and Andre Agassi’s famous mohawk

A few days back tennis fans viciously trolled Holger Rune for sacking the former coach of Roger Federer, Severin Luthi, in just 40 days of his inclusion in the team. Now, it’s about his hairstyle. It isn’t easy to be Holger Rune, isn’t it?

Commenting on the renowned tennis author, Bastien Fachan’s post where he put up Rune’s photo and wrote, “Oh Denmark is so winning Eurovision this year.” A fan commented, “his barber better serve time for this.“

While the other drew an equivalent of it with Andre Agassi’s mohawk.

Some of them wondered what happened to his hair.

Another one wrote. “Always something with this boy I swear to god.”

Others brought in Roger Federer’s ex-coach into the discussion and stated, “If I were Severin, I’d part ways too ngl.”

No matter how many times he reshuffles the coaching team or his hairstyle, Rune is back in Montpellier, playing some good tennis. In all fairness still, he does have a fair share of looks up his sleeve.

Rune steps away from his signature hat

A few months ago, fans questioned him for dropping his signature look on the court and shifting on to a new one. He jokingly responded to them citing he wanted to let the air in so that he doesn’t lose hair by the time he turns 50. He said, “Yeah, it’s a good question. So, it’s very [pauses] for those who don’t know, it’s very hot in this arena, so yesterday after the first set, I was sweating a lot, you know. I had to control it all the time.“

“So it’s like, why not, let’s play without it and see what happens and it’s not that I’m superstitious but it’s working pretty well. I think that it’s good to get some air for the hair as well if you want to have hair when you’re fifty [laughs]. So, yeah, I’m enjoying myself,” Rune added, while in Basel playing at the Swiss Indoors.

Holger Rune will next face the American, Michael Mmoh at the quarterfinals of the Open Sud de France. Can he overcome his disappointing run at the AO by winning a title in France?
