Overview
- Rune will make his competitive return for Denmark this weekend after an 11-month absence caused by an Achilles rupture.
- He tore his Achilles tendon at the Stockholm Open in October 2025, underwent surgery, and has spent the past year in rehabilitation.
- Rune’s comeback match is scheduled against Bulgaria’s Iliyan Radulov and he is due to face Grigor Dimitrov later in the tie.
- Dimitrov, who has watched Rune’s rehab closely and stayed in regular contact, said he has no doubt Rune can return to the highest level.
- Before the injury Rune won the 2025 Barcelona Open and finished runner-up at Indian Wells, and observers say match play in Copenhagen will determine how quickly he can rebuild his tour form.
