Holger Rune’s recent separation from Boris Becker has resulted in a reunion with his former coach, Patrick Mouratoglou, who has expressed interest in working with Nick Kyrgios. Despite returning to Rune’s team following Becker’s departure, Mouratoglou has already indicated a potential partnership with Kyrgios, a player who has been without a proper coach since 2017.
With previous experience coaching top players like Serena Williams and Simona Halep, Mouratoglou brings a wealth of expertise to the table. While his current focus is on Rune, he believes that coaching Kyrgios would be “one of the most exciting opportunities.” However, he acknowledges that it would only be beneficial if Kyrgios is open to a new coaching approach.
Mouratoglou understands the challenges of coaching a player like Kyrgios, who has characterized himself as “uncoachable.” He believes he has a unique understanding of the Australian player and sees untapped potential in him. Despite Kyrgios’ complex nature, Mouratoglou is hopeful about the prospect of working with him and believes they could achieve great success together.
At present, Mouratoglou’s primary focus is on Rune, whom he has known since the age of 13. He has high expectations for Rune and is enthusiastic about the new phase in their partnership. Rune, who recently parted ways with Becker, is hopeful for the future and trusts that Mouratoglou can help him achieve his aspirations.
The potential collaboration between Mouratoglou and Kyrgios could mark a new phase in the Australian player’s career. As for Rune, he looks forward to the guidance and support of his experienced coach as he continues to pursue success on the tennis circuit.
