Overview

• In a First&Red interview during US Open week, Anna Kalinskaya said Holger Rune messaged her about ten times before giving up.
• Kalinskaya characterized Rune as someone who writes to many players and said he thinks too much of himself.
• Rune replied on X that she misread his interactions, saying a comment on a story was not an invitation and that he would ask directly for a date.
• Reports also cite Veronika Kudermetova’s July statement that Rune texted her despite her being married, adding a second public account.
• Media coverage has amplified the claim and the denial through podcasts and social platforms, with no third‑party verification or sanction reported.
