World number eight in men’s tennis, Holger Rune, continues to fortify his coaching roster ahead of the 2024 season by enlisting the expertise of Severin Luthi, a seasoned mentor previously associated with Swiss legend Roger Federer. This addition to Rune’s coaching ensemble follows closely on the heels of the recent appointment of six-times major winner Boris Becker as his coach.

Luthi, aged 47, had an extensive coaching tenure with Roger Federer, spanning from 2007 until the Swiss maestro’s retirement in 2022. Notably, Luthi also assumes the role of captain for the Swiss Davis Cup team, bringing a wealth of experience and strategic insight to the tennis sphere.

Rune, who gears up for the forthcoming Australian Open Grand Slam scheduled from January 14-28, has been diligently honing his skills in Monte Carlo under the guidance of Becker since the latter joined his coaching team in mid-October.

Expressing his delight at the recent addition to his coaching setup, Rune took to social media, stating, “Very happy to welcome Severin to my team alongside Boris,” accompanied by a snapshot featuring his coaching team.

Throughout the season, Rune showcased his prowess on the court, notably securing two ATP 1000 finals appearances in Rome and Monte Carlo. Additionally, his triumph at the Bavarian International in Munich last April marked his sole title conquest of the year.

The strategic alignment with experienced mentors like Luthi and Becker signifies Rune’s commitment to refining his game and maximizing his potential as he prepares to tackle the challenges and competitions awaiting him in the upcoming season, particularly setting his sights on the prestigious Australian Open.

As Rune continues to evolve and fine-tune his skills under the tutelage of renowned coaches, the tennis world eagerly anticipates witnessing his growth and performance on the global stage, setting the stage for an enthralling season ahead.
