Australian Open Best Bet: Holger Rune vs. Jannik Sinner

Rune was cramping against Miomir Kecmanovic in the fourth set of the third round, and it was amazing the 21-year-old was even able to win. He lost most of his ability to maneuver the baseline, so he started to stand and deliver massive blows from both wings. The forehand ultimately got him here, as he was absolutely scorching from that side of the court.

His recovery is going to be extremely important heading into a match with Sinner, but I’d at least expect the best Rune has to offer for the first two sets or so. If he can do some damage there, he should go Over his personal games total of 13.5.

Sinner has won two matches in a row against Rune, but the 21-year-old has beaten him twice in their four career meetings. And it’s not like all of those wins came a long time ago. Rune beat Sinner in the semifinals in Monte Carlo in 2023, 1-6, 7-5, 7-5. And interestingly enough, Rune has won more than 13.5 games in three of the four matches these two have played. That’s noteworthy because these two have never played a best-of-five match against one another. In the match he didn’t reach this mark, he came up just a half-game short.

The Australian Open is heating up with some exciting matches on the horizon, and one matchup that has caught the attention of tennis fans is the clash between Holger Rune and Jannik Sinner. Both players are young talents with promising futures in the sport, but who will come out on top in this highly anticipated showdown?

In this best bet analysis, we will be looking at the strengths and weaknesses of both players to determine who has the edge in this match.

Holger Rune, a 19-year-old Danish player, has been making waves on the ATP Tour with his aggressive playing style and strong baseline game. He has shown great potential in recent tournaments, reaching the final of the Next Gen ATP Finals last year. Rune’s powerful serve and ability to dictate play from the baseline make him a formidable opponent for any player on the tour.

On the other hand, Jannik Sinner, a 20-year-old Italian player, has also been making a name for himself in the tennis world. Sinner has a well-rounded game, with a strong serve and solid groundstrokes. He has already captured two ATP titles and has shown that he has the mental toughness to compete at the highest level.

In terms of head-to-head matchups, Rune and Sinner have never faced each other on the ATP Tour, so it will be interesting to see how they match up against each other for the first time.

Overall, this match promises to be a thrilling encounter between two young stars of the tennis world. While both players have the potential to come out on top, our best bet for this matchup is Jannik Sinner. Sinner’s experience on the tour and his ability to handle pressure situations give him the edge in this match.

Be sure to tune in to the Australian Open and watch as these two rising stars battle it out on the court. It’s sure to be a match you won’t want to miss!

Australian Open Pick of the Day: Matteo Berrettini vs. Holger Rune

You don’t get many meetings between two household names in the second round of 128-player tournaments, but that’s what we’re getting when Holger Rune takes on Matteo Berrettini at the Australian Open.

Rune was able to survive a massive opening-round scare, winning 4-6, 6-3, 6-4, 3-6, 6-4 against Zhizhen Zhang. Meanwhile, Berrettini dropped the first set against Cam Norrie, but cruised from there. Now, he’ll look to knock off Rune and continue a comeback that has been several years in the making. But Rune’s rise is a story that we’ve also been watching unfold, and I like the Dane to advance.

I wouldn’t rule out a big season for Berrettini this year. He had a nice year last year, going 32-13 with three titles. Berrettini is even further removed from the injuries that derailed his career, and he also hired Umberto Ferrara as his new fitness coach. Ferrara, you may recall, was involved in Jannik Sinner’s doping case, and he was dismissed from the team for negligence. But Ferrara is known as one of the best fitness specialists on the planet, and one man’s trash can be another man’s treasure. The problem is that Rune is also leveling up when it comes to the people around him.

Today’s Australian Open Pick of the Day features a match-up between Matteo Berrettini and Holger Rune. Berrettini, the Italian powerhouse, is known for his powerful serve and aggressive baseline game. On the other hand, Rune, the young Danish player, is a rising star with an impressive all-court game.

In this match, Berrettini is the clear favorite with his experience and higher ranking. However, Rune has shown great potential and could potentially cause an upset if he brings his A-game.

My pick for this match is Matteo Berrettini to come out on top, but expect a competitive and exciting match from both players. Stay tuned for more updates and analysis on the Australian Open! #AustralianOpen #Berrettini #Rune #TennisPick

Rune will face hostile atmosphere against Kecmanovic with arena full of Serbian immigrants
Holger Rune could find himself in the midst of a hostile atmosphere when he on Saturday morning faces the Serb Miomir Kecmanovic in the third round of the Australian Open.

The 21-year old Dane has looked in fine form at the first Grand Slam tournament of the year, perhaps especially when he knocked out the hard-serving Italian Matteo Berrettini in the second round.

However, against Kecmanovic Holger Rune will not only face an opponent who makes very mistakes from the forehand and backhand but also enjoys immense support from a crowd with many relations to the Balkan nation.

Different reasons like financial instability and war have throughout history paved the way for many ex-Yugoslav immigrants immigrating to Australia in search of a better life.

Although migration has been reduced during the last decade, the Serbian community in Australia maintains their cultural ties through the support of various Serbian clubs, sporting clubs, associations and attending Serbian Orthodox churches. In 2021 municipal figures established that around 100.000 Serbs today resides in Australia, many of them in Melbourne where Australian Open takes place.

On that background its not difficult to comprehend that Kecmanovic has felt right at home at the Grand Slam tournament.

“I love being here, there’s so many Serbian people and they always show up,” the 24-year-old said after having booked his place in the third round of Australian Open 2024 after a hard-fought victory over Jan-Lennard Struff on Thursday.

“It always feels like you are home.”

In his six Australian Open main-draw campaigns, Kecmanovic, who at the age of 13 relocated from Belgrade to Florida, in the United States, has steadily built on that affinity.

In 2022, he recorded his best Grand Slam showing as he defeated higher-ranked opponents in Lorenzo Sonego and Tommy Paul to reach the tournament’s final 16.

Rune has met Kecmanovic twice before. Both matches took place at the end of 2023, when they both won once on indoor hard court.

The match Saturday will take place on Margaret Court Arena and will start around 11.00 AM CET.

The winner of the match can in all probability look forward to a meeting with world No 1, Jannik Sinner, in the fourth round.

Rune will face a hostile atmosphere in his upcoming match against Kecmanovic, as the arena is expected to be full of Serbian immigrants cheering on their fellow countryman. The passionate support for Kecmanovic may create a challenging environment for Rune, but the young player is determined to stay focused and give his best performance on the court. Can Rune overcome the intense atmosphere and come out victorious? Stay tuned to find out!

Rune vs. Kecmanovic, De Minaur vs. Cerundolo

There are unseeded players all over the place in the top half of the Australian Open draw, including Miomir Kecmanovic. The Serb will try to keep his run going against Holger Rune, while Alex de Minaur faces Francisco Cerundolo.

Miomir Kecmanovic vs. (13) Holger Rune

Rune and Kecmanovic will be squaring off for the third time in their careers when they collide in round three of the Australian Open on Saturday. Although Kecmanovic is obviously the underdog in this one, he has played Rune tough in the past. They have split their two previous encounters; Kecmanovic prevailed 7-6(3), 6-2 on the indoor hard courts of Stockholm in 2022 before Rune won 1-6, 7-5, 6-3 the very next week in Stockholm.

This is another sneaky spot for Kecmanovic to find more success against Rune. The hard-court slams have been by far the 21-year-old Dane’s worst. He was won seven matches combined at the Aussie Open and U.S. Open compared to 17 total at the French Open and Wimbledon. On the other hand, Melbourne is by far Kecmanovic’s favorite spot of the four. The 51st-ranked Serb has reached the fourth round twice and has never advanced that far at any other major. Moreover, Kecmanovic is coming off a straight-set beatdown of Hubert Hurkacz, whereas Rune has been severely tested by both Zhizhen Zhang and Matteo Berrettini. Sound the upset alert.

Pick: Kecmanovic in 5

(31) Francisco Cerundolo vs. (8) Alex de Minaur

De Minaur went into the tournament as by far the host nation’s best hope to make a deep run; to say that nothing has changed through two rounds would be a gross understatement. The world No. 8 trounced his first two opponents–6-1, 7-5, 6-4 over Botic van de Zandschulp and 6-2, 6-4, 6-3 over Tristan Boyer. De Minaur is now 4-0 in the early stages of this season, having won his pair of United Cup matches in similarly dominant fashion.

Up next for the Aussie is what will surprisingly be a first-ever meeting with Cerundolo. Amazingly, the first week of this tournament has been even more routine for Cerundolo. In fact, nobody in the entire draw had an easier first two rounds than the Argentine. He benefited from two virtual byes, erasing a disinterested Alexander Bublik 7-6(1), 6-3, 6-2 before getting a second-set retirement from Facundo Diaz Acosta while leading 6-2, 1-0. Cerundolo is talented, but he rarely comes to play against higher-ranked opponents–with one exception being a five-set loss to Novak Djokovic at the 2024 French Open. Facing De Minaur in Australia is unlikely to be another exception.

Pick: De Minaur in 3

In an exciting day of tennis matchups, Rune faced off against Kecmanovic while De Minaur took on Cerundolo. Both matches promised to be intense battles between young, up-and-coming players.

Rune, the young Danish player known for his powerful strokes and aggressive playing style, was eager to take on Kecmanovic, a talented Serbian player with a strong baseline game. The match was expected to be a showcase of skill and determination from both players as they fought for a spot in the next round.

On the other court, De Minaur, the Australian sensation known for his speed and consistency, was set to face Cerundolo, a promising Argentine player with a deadly forehand. The match was sure to be a test of endurance and strategy as both players looked to outwit and outplay each other on the court.

Tennis fans were buzzing with anticipation as they awaited the outcomes of these thrilling matchups. Who would emerge victorious in the battle between Rune and Kecmanovic? And who would come out on top in the clash between De Minaur and Cerundolo? Stay tuned for all the action and excitement on the court.

The new season is already underway and it comes with multiple surprises. Matteo Berrettini fell to a great Jordan Thompson at ATP Brisbane 2025 with a score of 6-3, 3-6, and 6-4 in 2 hours and 15 minutes of play, comeback included. A few hours later, Holger Rune had one of the disappointments of the day by losing in his first match of the new season against Jiri Lehecka.

This news is an automatic translation. You can read the original news, Berrettini y Rune tropiezan en el inicio de la nueva temporada
In a surprising turn of events, top tennis players Matteo Berrettini and Holger Rune stumbled at the start of the new season. Both players were considered favorites to make a strong start to the year, but unfortunately, things did not go as planned.

Berrettini, who is currently ranked in the top 10, faced a shocking defeat in the first round of a major tournament. The Italian player struggled to find his rhythm and ultimately fell to a lower-ranked opponent in a tight match. This unexpected loss is sure to be a setback for Berrettini as he looks to build momentum for the rest of the season.

On the other hand, young talent Holger Rune also faced a disappointing start to the season. The 18-year-old rising star had high expectations coming into the new year, but he too suffered an early exit in a tournament. Rune, who has been making waves on the tour with his impressive play, will need to regroup and refocus in order to bounce back from this setback.

It just goes to show that in the world of tennis, anything can happen. Both Berrettini and Rune will need to put this rough start behind them and focus on the upcoming challenges that lie ahead. Only time will tell if they can recover and make a strong comeback in the remainder of the season.

ATP Brisbane Day 2 Predictions Including Lehecka vs Rune
The 2025 tennis season has kicked off and while all the focus is on the Australian Open there’s still some important tournaments to be played before that, including this ATP 250 event in Brisbane, with none other than Novak Djokovic leading the field. While the Serb won’t be in action yet, there’s plenty of great matches to look forward to Monday, with both of last year’s finalists–Grigor Dimitrov and Holger Rune–taking to the court.

ATP Brisbane Day 2 Predictions

Arthur Rinderknech vs Yoshihito Nishioka

Head-to-head: Nishioka 1-0 Rinderknech

Nishioka won a very hard fought encounter in last year’s Atlanta semfinals en route to a third career title and this should also be a very tightly contested affair. Both players struggle to make headway against top level opponents, but are solid ATP level players who can compete for titles at ATP 250 level. Nishioka is usually the slightly more consistent player of the two and has perhaps the slighest of edges here.
Prediction: Nishioka in 3

Grigor Dimitrov vs Yannick Hanfmann

Head-to-head: Dimitrov 1-0 Hanfmann

Dimitrov had an amazing 2024 season and now faces the big challenge of staying in the top 10 or perhaps rising even higher. He is the defending champion in Brisbane and always tends to play well at this venue, so he is definitely expected to have a deep run here and make relatively easy work of this first round encounter.
Prediction: Dimitrov in 2

Jiri Lehecka vs Holger Rune

Head-to-head: Rune 2-1 Lehecka

Going by ranking, this is definitely the match of the day, even more so if we consider that Lehecka is likely considerably underranked given his long injury absence last year. 2025 will be a big year for both players, especially for Rune who is hyped as a potential Grand Slam champion, and a win here would be the perfect start for either player. Rune should be considered a very slight favorite, but it is an incredibly difficult match to call, one that could genuinely go either way.
Prediction: Rune in 3
