Apparently there is no Holger Rune (7º del ranking ATP) without controversy, and the Monte-Carlo Masters 1000 does not seem to be the exception. After his defeat in the quarterfinals against Jannik Sinner (2nd), the Dane took a strong stance on the organization of the competition via social networks.

What happened? The young 20-year-old tennis player had to play two matches the day before and, almost without rest, he faced the Italian beast in search of a place in the semifinals of the competition. Clearly the recovery time was almost zero, so that ended up working against him.

Despite having shown a great level on the court, after the 6-4, 6-7 (6) and 6-3 defeat, Rune decided to criticize the organization of the tournament, calling them for helping one of the favorites, such as Sinner.

“It’s not like you gave me the best conditions in the first place, having to play 2 games the day before finishing late, which leaves almost no recovery time. The chair umpire made crucial errors and gave an incorrect warning that disrupted the game“, said the tennis player in his X account.
Clearly the result of the match did not go down well with the Dane at all, and being a tennis player with few flaws, he did not hold anything back before leaving for the ATP 250 de Munich.
