Holger Rune 'Ready To Give It All' On His ATP Finals Debut

| by Sebastian Dahlman

Holger Rune is going to make his ATP Finals debut soon, and the Danish player is excited about tackling the event for the first time.

Rune was a surefire Top 8 player in the first few months of the year, thanks to his amazing play on the clay season. He bested Novak Djokovic in Rome and played in the Monte Carlo final.

That form didn't continue in the second half of the year, which caused him to sweat about Turin. He did enough with solid performances in Basel and Paris to ensure his place there.

It was close, but he truly deserved it, as he explained in a recent interview with the ATP ahead of his Turin debut.

If I continued the way that I did the first six months, I would be in easily. Definitely a lot of eagerness to be able to be there this year. Obviously last year it would have been great to make it [as a direct qualifier], but I didn't expect to make it at all.

He will be in Turin this year, and he's excited about it. Playing against the best is what Rune loves doing most so just a chance to do that makes it all worth it for him. He's going to give it his all and see what happens in the coming days.

It's definitely a tough field out there- You have to be good. You cannot just be at your level. You need to improve every day to be able to just stay there, and if you want to go even more up, you have to do big things in your game, in your physicality and everything. So it's a constant process.

It's OK. It's a good fight. It's the last push of the season. I'm really ready to give all.
