Rune blasts online haters in interesting Instagram story, calls them 'unintelligent' and 'jealous' amid Wawrinka incident

Holger Rune and Stan Wawrinka continued their chilly relations in a heated battle at the Indian Wells Masters where Rune continuously complained about the crowd.

Wawrinka chirped back at him a few times during the match and it was just a continuation of their Paris matchup that featured some of the same. Wawrinka famously said to Rune following that match that he should stop being a baby on the court. Rune dismissed those comments but he remembered them. So much so that he asked Wawrinka if he had something to say after yesterday's match to which Wawrinka responded 'What do you want me to say'.

Well, he took to Instagram to bash the haters with an Instagram story hurling a few insults at them. Rune wrote:

“Before you write hate or shitty comments on my or any account, you should be aware of how the majority read your comment and see you as unintelligent… Harsh judgements are handed out so people feel better about themselves but everyone (if of average or above average intelligence) can see that they are hurting and have been brought down by something that has them feeling defensive (jealousy) – so they become critical of others hoping to restore their self esteem. Needless to say - with no luck."
