Holger Rune shared that he also got bombed with messages after a false report claimed that he was appointing Serena Williams’ ex-coach Rennae Stubbs as his new coach.
Just days after splitting with coach Severin Luthi, Rune also decided to part ways with Boris Becker. Stubbs, who worked as coach/advisor for Williams during the American’s last tournament at the 2022 US Open, seemingly made herself available to Rune after the Dane split with Luthi and Becker.
“@holgerrune2003 I have some time up my sleeve,” Stubbs wrote on X on February 7th.
That post of Stubbs was taken out of context and way exaggerated as FirstSportz posted a poster that read: “Revealed: Holger Rune to appoint Rennae Stubbs as new coach after Boris Becker?”
That led to Stubbs being contacted by her friends and colleagues, who asked her if she was indeed becoming the new coach of Rune.
“I have been sent this by MANY people asking ‘is this true?’ No it’s not! I don’t know who put this out but you’re a bunch of clowns to do so with zero proof. My god!” Stubbs wrote on X.
I have been sent this by MANY people asking “is this true?” No it’s not! I don’t know who put this out but you’re a bunch of 🤡 to do so with zero proof. My god!
