‘I Like Diversity’ – Holger Rune Displays Incredible Maturity As He Refuses To Be Drawn Into Nick Kyrgios Criticism

On the tennis court, Nick Kyrgios is a fiery showman. He had been described as a clown by Roger Federer, and Rafael Nadal said he lacked respect, yet he is also regarded as one of the most entertaining tennis players on the current circuit. In such a way that even his controversies and lively nature are simply something that entertains the tennis audience.

Although he is absent on the tennis circuit, he is constantly mentioned in many tennis conversations. In a similar way, recently, Holger Rune, who has been watching the Australian great for several years, made a remark about his amusing nature on the court.

Holger Rune on Nick Kyrgios’ controversial personality 

The 2022 Wimbledon finalist has been a part of a lot of tennis controversies over the years, and even though a lot of tennis players like his open stand, some of them are totally against his controversial personality. However, the 27-year-old tennis player has been out of the tennis circuit because of an injury for the past few years, but his clever take on social media regarding ongoing tennis concerns keeps him going.

While he is still carrying his bad-boy image, another tennis player, Rune, might have joined him in the same category. Recently, in an interview with FirstSportz, the Danish tennis player got candid about his thoughts on Kyrgios and whether, according to him, they make tennis entertaining or not.

He said, “I like diversity. If we all are alike then the world would be a very dull place to be. Different opinions and different personalities are a good thing. Not bad.”

Nevertheless, the 20-year-old tennis player’s aggressive attitude is quite similar to the Aussie personality on the tennis court. But with his maturity-filled statement, he made his point clear, that he has no intention to be dragged into any tennis controversy.

When Rune received a Kyrgios-inspired advice 

Just a month ago, the rising ATP star fell short in the quarterfinals of the French Open. The Dane discussed his underwhelming performance in an interview with Eurosport after losing against his fellow Scandinavian rival, Casper Ruud.

After that interview, the former tennis player and journalist for Eurosport Mats Wilander said that he appeared to have succumbed to the pressure of the situation. Furthermore, he mentioned that Kyrgios-like passion was missing from his game. And that he might need some mayhem and fire like that 27-year-old tennis player.
