Holger Rune will travel without his mother Aneke for at least part of the ATP season in a startling departure for the Dane.
Rune, the 20-year-old world No. 7 was knocked out in the Rotterdam second round this week by Alexander Shevchenko; he has been accompanied and coached by his ever-present parent during all of his professional career,
Now, he looks like cutting at least some of the apron strings.
He told Denmark’s TV2: “It’s a bit random, she will be in some tournaments, not in others.
“We still talk a lot on the phone both before and after the matches. It’s an important part of my team and I love having her with me.
“It was a joint decision that she went to UTS Oslo and Rotterdam. It feels different, but I think it is healthy that she is in some tournaments and in others No”.
