Holger Rune, the rising tennis star, is making headlines not just for his skills on the court but also for his newfound love for fast cars, inspired by none other than Novak Djokovic. The young player recently revealed his impulsive purchase of a Porsche 911, valued at a staggering €275,000, after being awestruck by Djokovic’s own Porsche in Miami.
The revelation came during an interview in Monte Carlo, where Rune enthusiastically shared his excitement for the high-performance vehicle. Despite not yet having his driver’s license, Rune couldn’t resist the temptation to own the sleek sports car, citing Djokovic’s influence as the driving force behind his purchase.
Interestingly, this isn’t the first luxury car that Rune has acquired without being able to drive it himself. In 2023, after winning back-to-back titles at the BMW Open in Munich, he received a BMW i4 M50 Gran Coupe, which has now become a family car driven mostly by his father due to Rune’s lack of a driver’s license.
Despite his off-court indulgences, Rune remains focused on his tennis career, drawing inspiration from Djokovic, with whom he shares a strong bond both on and off the court. The young Dane continues to impress with his talent and determination, even though a recent wrist injury forced him to withdraw from a match in Monte Carlo.
As Rune’s fanbase eagerly anticipates his return to the court, the question remains: will his passion for fast cars drive him towards his next title, or will he have to put the brakes on his need for speed? Stay tuned for more updates on Holger Rune’s journey from the tennis court to the driver’s seat.
