Holger Rune defeated Stefanos Tsitsipas at Indian Wells and advanced to the quarterfinals.

During the press conference, he was asked about the presence of Danish fans in the crowd. Rune replied: "It's great.

I think I've received a lot of love and support in this tournament. Even when I played Fritz last year, the atmosphere was fantastic.

I think the crowd is very respectful. They are here for tennis and good matches.

Seeing Danish flags and people coming from Denmark to watch me play is truly incredible.

Especially after that Davis Cup match against Serbia, which we managed to win 3-2. I've brought more Danes to take an interest in tennis.

It's an extraordinary feeling."

Rune will face Tallon Griekspoor for a spot in the semifinals of the Indian Wells Masters 1000.

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
