He says that he's not satisfied with his results, and that media, experts, randoms and others call him sh1t.
He must be very frustrated.

He has the right attitude. He says he is only 21. We have stockings older than him in the drawer.
Alcaraz at 21 is an anomaly. Do not count Rune out. He will definitely get better from here. And he is already Top 15.
:unsure:
Sometimes the bumps on the road are painful and frustrating. But we all know there are no easy or fast way to fulfil our dreams.
Every experience is learning, that will make the foundation so strong that no one or nothing can break us in the end.

I am not satisfied with my results, but still I have to remember I am 21, I am top 15 in the world , the highest ranked male ever in my county.
So when media, “experts “ and randoms call me ****, I take it as a bizarre compliment.
They are expecting more from me, and faster . I too love when everything moves in F1 speed towards the goal but life is not always like that

To every young person or player out there losing in sports or feeling like a failure , be strong, it’s part of the road to success a certain amount of darkness is needed to enjoy the daylight #keepfighting #keepworking#keepbelieving

That's precisely the problem Rune has. He's so entitled and living in his dream world, that he refuses to believe all is not well.

Let's go into details. Rune was hyped from childhood. He had talent no doubt, but lacked the humility. His family is primarily to blame. They pampered him so much and also put that expectations onto him.
Like that showed in matches where he screamed at his mom and she had to move out of court.
Note: this is a common behaviour of pampered child, when things go wrong they show their anger on parents only.

For Rune to have results, the hard work need to be done. First the humility is required. Instead he gives stupid statements like I'm top 15 in world and the highest ranked Dane male player. What nonsense. He's the same guy who wants to beat 14 rg titles and compare to Fed.

Compare with other guys like Alcaraz, Sinner, Ruud etc
They are all grounded. Do the hard work and perform to their best.

He's a gone case and that everyone knows except he and his circle

Absolutely, that paired with the right medication should help a lot. Not enough to win him a slam though, that will never happen while having a Shapovalov-like mentality...
If Holger got a good psychologist + right medication + practiced meditation and breathing exercises, he'd be top 5 again in no time. No time.

He underperforms, and says he knows he is underperforming, while getting made that people say he is an underperformer. He is kinda right about having to believe in yourself, but it isn't that people around him are the cause, but that his personal narrative is driving it. I agree he needs to shut himself up, play tennis, and first stop thinking he is underperforming, accept his current physical and mental level, and find incremental ways to improve. Rec tennis is filled with mental midget who are better than the people they (shouldn't) lose to.

Years ago I used to feel my US Open was a satisfying experience when Sharapova would lose. I sort of feel that way now when Holger loses.

Problem is that he was top 5 when he was 19 and has seemingly regressed. He needs to recuperate and rebuild his momentum from when he was young If he wants to break into the top 10 again.
