Holger Rune’s sister Alma shares her emotions in 2 words about Dane crushing Carlos Alcaraz in Barcelona final

Holger Rune’s Sister Alma Reacts with Two Words to His Dominant Win Over Carlos Alcaraz in Barcelona Final

Holger Rune delivered a statement victory in the Barcelona Open final, defeating Carlos Alcaraz in commanding fashion. And no one was prouder than his sister, Alma Rune.

Taking to Instagram, Alma summed up her joy in just two words: “Best Sunday”, tagging her brother in the celebratory post. The update came alongside a photo of the Danish star holding the trophy, showcasing a sibling bond filled with pride and admiration.

Rune’s performance was nothing short of impressive. Speaking to ATP Tour following his win, he reflected on the intensity of the match:

“It means the world. It was such a great match. In the beginning, I was a little bit stressed, because Carlos obviously plays big-time tennis. I had to breathe a lot and find my rhythm. After he broke me, I got more into the match and played my tennis. The first set was a big battle, and it was super important to win it and gain the momentum.”

Rune also revealed a mental strategy he borrowed from tennis legend Novak Djokovic:

“When I got broken in the first set, I thought to myself that I don’t need to hit every shot on the line. So I asked myself: ‘What did Novak do when he beat him?’ I played it in my mind, the Olympics final, and tried to play that style—making a lot of balls. I’m very happy with how I stayed composed when it mattered, and I was really brave.”

The win propelled Rune four spots up in the ATP rankings, pushing him into the Top 10 and reinforcing his status as one of the brightest young stars in men’s tennis.
