It is a complete crisis for the Dane who was the defending champion in the tournament.

The loss against Serbian Kecmanovic means that Rune has now lost ten of his last eleven tennis matches. The Serb is ranked number 53 in the world, while the Dane is ranked number six.

“Pinligt”, is the headline on the front of in Danish Extra Magazine.

The Dane is now in danger of falling in the ranking since he is now losing the points he had earned in last year’s Stockholm Open.

Earlier on Wednesday, Casper Ruud lost to American qualifier Marcos Giron in the 2nd round of the ATP500 tournament in Tokyo.

Rune’s loss in Stockholm increases the chance that Ruud could be among the eight who will be allowed to participate in the ATP play-offs in Turin. The Norwegian is now number eight in the ranking.

Earlier this summer, it became known that Rune had found love with the Italian model Caroline Donzella. Since then, the Dane has pretty much only lost.

– It is of great importance. It’s his first love, and it means very, very much. Then it is difficult to concentrate only on playing tennis, former Danish tennis player Michael Mortensen has said Extra Magazine.

Before the loss against Kecmanovic, the Danish tennis experts were clear that he should and must win the tournament.

– If he loses, I’m sure he won’t reach the season finale, says the same Mortensen same newspaper.

And lose, he did.
