Danish teenager Holger Rune swept aside 14th seed Denis Shapovalov in straight sets at the French Open on Tuesday to earn his first win in a Grand Slam tournament and confirm his status as one of the sport’s brightest prospects.
PARIS — Danish teenager Holger Rune swept aside 14seed Denis Shapovalov in straight sets at the French Open on Tuesday to earn his first win in a Grand Slam tournament and confirm his status as one of the sport’s brightest prospects.
“I’m really positive and working hard every day to get better. This is what you work for every day, to be able to play the biggest tournaments,” the baby-faced teenager with a bright smile told a news conference. A former French Open junior champion at 16, Rune looked extremely comfortable on the red clay on the outside Court 12, cruising through the first two sets in less than an hour with Shapovalov having no answer to his power and serial drop shots.“It’s very natural for me and I think it’s good, especially here on clay when opponents are far behind the baseline, to mix it up. It’s also more fun to watch,” he said.
