Since then, he doesn't even say hello to me anymore," Kudermetova's unprecedented revelation about Rune

During a conversation between former player Vesnina and her compatriot Veronika Kudermetova, the current world No. 42 shared some confidences about a message Rune allegedly sent her.

"Holger Rune recently sent me a message. I replied: 'I’m probably too old for you. If you looked at my Instagram, you’d see I’m married.' He answered: 'Oh, sorry.' Since then, he doesn’t even say hello to me anymore."

Indeed, the 28-year-old player is married to Sergei Demekhine, a tennis coach and former professional player. The couple got together in 2015. In 2020, the Russian had commented on their relationship: "At 16, I liked him, but I didn’t think about anything else. It’s probably my upbringing that influenced me. Such thoughts were unacceptable to me.
