Good man, already now: Holger Vitus Nidskov Rune

Holger Vitus Nodskov Rune has already advanced to position 109 in the ATP world rankings with his triumph at the ATP Challenger tournament in Bergamo. That alone would be worth honoring, but if the rules regarding the frozen points weren't in place, then the young Dane would be in position 70 ..

Which Rune has already commented critically (and rightly). At the moment the mood should be right. Because with the 7: 5 and 7: 6 (6) against Cem Ilkel on Sunday evening in Bergamo, the 18-year-old once again set a late sporting exclamation mark.

This means that the already not insignificant self-confidence of the teeanger on the way to the #NextGen finals in Milan will have grown by a large amount. There Rune was drawn into Group A - and will face Carlos Alcaraz, Juan Manuel Cerundolo and Brandon Nakashima.
