Whatever sport a player participates in, they always figure out a way to get comfortable before a game.
While some regard it as a superstition, others think it might help you play better and divert your opponent’s attention.
Holger Rune, a famous tennis player from Denmark, recently disclosed a unique method of intimidating his opponents. Prior to that, though, do you know who on the men’s tennis circuit has the shortest shorts?
You guessed correctly, of course. We’re going to discuss Holger Rune’s recent admission of the strategy behind raising his shorts during a game.
The 20-year-old Danish tennis player made a recent visit to the Tennis Channel Live Desk following his decisive victory over the Italian, Lorenzo Musetti.
For a while now, Holger Rune has been the buzz of the town thanks to his 80s tennis style, which included shorts reminiscent of the John McEnroe period.
However, what was his precise Nike inseam measurement at the BNP Paribas Open? Five inches seems like a nice amount. They’re about five, I don’t know how long they are, Holger Rune disclosed in the interview.
He made a joke about how he was able to win the match in straight sets by pulling his shorts up higher. Did you witness the tiebreaker ending in 5-5? He missed the forehand because of this. Rune said, It’s just a little mind trick.
The rising Danish tennis player defeated Musetti 6-2, 7-6(5) in just 96 minutes to book his spot in the tournament’s fourth round.
What did he say, though, following the game? According to Rune, the essence of tennis is taking calculated risks during play. “Most of the time, whether or not you take them will determine the outcome of the match,” he continued. But I’m glad I managed to remain calm and play well through the tie-break.
In reference to the argument sparked by the hosts on who currently possesses the strongest leg muscles on the ATP Tour, Holger Rune remarked, “I mean, to be honest, I would have to back myself.
You know, I simply have faith in my legs; I’m not being conceited or anything. In addition to their appearance, I believe they are effective on the court.
Indeed, it is a cool picture. But this isn’t the first time that Rune’s legs have drawn attention.
Even at a promotional shot for the 2023 Shanghai Masters, Grigor Dimitrov pulled a wonderful practical joke on Holger Rune’s legs last year.
Rune was requested to participate in the Lost in Translation game after being escorted into the media area.
He was instructed to precisely repeat a Chinese word after hearing it spoken. However, it escaped his notice that Dimitrov was the one in charge there.
