Holger Rune has revealed that he has suffered a broken Achilles in a specific area and will have an operation next week.
The Dane popped his Achilles during his semi-final match with Ugo Humbert in Stockholm where he was leading the contest 6-4 2-2.
However, Rune suffered the injury and knew straight away as he was crying and immediately retired.
Now Rune has revealed that he has suffered a broken Achilles in a specific area and is set to be ruled for a long time, “It’s gonna be a while before I can step on court again. It’s tough,” Rune wrote on Instagram.
“I had so much joy on court in Stockholm and it’s unbearable to think that I will not feel this energy for some time now. My Achilles is full broken on the proximal part meaning I need operation already next week and from here rehabilitation.
“Thank you for all your support now and always . Without you nothing would be the same. See you as soon as possible.”
The injury means that Rune will most likely be out for a year and will need to use a protected ranking when he comes back from injury.
