After dropping a 6-4, 6-7(6), 6-3 loss to Jannik Sinner in the Monte-Carlo quarterfinals, Holger Rune has taken to social media to complain to the ATP Tour.
The Dane, who made an innocent gesture to hush the crowd and was given a warning for unsportsmanlike conduct at 5-5 in the second set (in addition to a time violation warning, which prompted the incident), says he felt he has been given poor treatment by the tour.
Editor’s Note: Rune may be carrying some baggage with regard to Dumusois, who mistakenly called him “Casper” during a match at Basel last year.
Rune would argue his case on court with umpire Damien Dumusois and tournament supervisor Cedric Mourier to no avail, but he did go on to save a pair match points and force a decider before losing in three sets.

The Dane took offense…
