Despite Holger Rune recently parting ways with renown coach Patrick Mouratoglou, the Danish star still visits the Frenchman's tennis academy in Monte Carlo, according to Rune's mother, Aneke Rune.
Mouratoglou, who has coached the likes of Serena Williams and Simona Halep, began working with Rune in 2022, during which the Danish youngster captured the biggest title of his career at the 2022 Paris Masters after beating Novak Djokovic in the final. However, the duo parted ways in August 2023.
Rune still a regular at Mouratoglou academy, according to Aneke
In an appearance on The Craig Shapiro Tennis Podcast, Aneke rune revealed her son still visits the Patrick Mouratoglou Academy in Monte Carlo, despite the duo splitting up last year. Furthermore, she stated there was still a chance of a reunion, as they wanted to keep all possibilities open.
"He (Holger) goes back to mentioning Patrick (Mouratoglou) because Patrick is an amazing coach and he did some very good results with him," disclosed Aneke Rune. "However we end up in the future, I don't know. It's not my decision. I don't know what Holger is feeling on court. Let's see what the future brings."
Growing up in a household where soccer was king, my earliest memories are filled with chants from packed stadiums and the rhythm of a ball being passed across neighborhood streets. But somewhere along the way, the quiet elegance and raw emotion of tennis pulled me in. What began as a curiosity became a lifelong passion; not just for the sport itself, but for the stories it tells: of grit, of heartbreak, of improbable comebacks and human resilience.
As a tennis writer, I bring the observational lens of someone who didn’t grow up in the sport, but fell in love with it as an outsider; a perspective that lets me see both its technical beauty and its emotional depth. Over the years working with TennisUpToDate, I’ve had the privilege of reaching more than 3.5 million readers worldwide, with one of my features ranking among the site’s top three articles.
With a background in storytelling and a creative mind always searching for meaning beyond the scoreboard, I aim to craft narratives that go deeper than results and rankings. Whether it’s a rising star breaking through or a veteran fighting off Father Time, I try to capture the heartbeat behind the headlines.
