No stranger to the reply button, Rune was quick to answer Becker directly, calling out his ex-coach on the public nature of his post, which was sent from Twitter/X for all to see.
“Super strange you don’t ask me this question directly as we text together about other stuff 😂” Rune posted in reply. “The answer to your question is yes we work together. Sharing the tournaments between us as planned.”
Seeded No. 15 at SW19, Rune could face No. 2 seed Djokovic in the fourth round, but will first have to contend with first-round opponent Soon-woo Kwon, a former world No. 52 who missed much of last season due to a shoulder injury. Kwon leads their head-to-head 2-0, having beaten the former world No. 4 in four sets at the 2022 Australian Open.
