World No. 6 Holger Rune has credited his run to this year’s Wimbledon quarterfinals to the love and support shown by his mom.
The 20-year-old beat Bulgaria’s Grigor Dimitrov on Monday to set up an enticing match against world No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz for a place in the semifinals, and his mother was leading the celebrations from the player’s box on Court 1. “The support from my box today was one of the best ever. Also, we talked about it after. They had a lot of fun,” Hune told reporters after his round of 16 win. “It was cool because I was super locked in today, focused, ready to battle until it’s over.
“She’s a huge influence,” he said, speaking about how his mom helps him compete at the top level. “She really helps to kind of keep me in the perfect state of mind. Obviously, she knows me better than anybody […] that’s also why she’s traveling with me for every tournament. “I want her for every tournament. I want her there because I really feel the support. Also, if I feel like I have something that I want to get off my heart or something, I can always come to her and talk.
