"I have been very good today in finding solutions when needed," said Holger Rune in a press conference after securing his fourth consecutive victory in this Indian Wells 2025, where he positions himself as a candidate for the trophy. The Dane continues to impress with his tennis, raising the current level of his game. With his ticket already secured to the semis, Holger revealed to the media about his mentality and answered whether he follows the circuit or not.

"The results so far are good. I am very happy to have found the way in the most difficult moments. Tallon is a great player, so I am very happy to have advanced to the next round. No matter what I did, he had an answer to everything. I had to change the game plan and started playing differently. I saw that I was starting to make more impact, so I continued in that way. I managed to play in a way he didn't like as much as before. I found a way to win, and that's what mattered."

Improvements in the mental aspect

"I tried to find solutions because it reminded me a bit of the match against Humbert that I played, also when things weren't going well, and I was down a break in the third set. Being ahead in the first set gave him more confidence to believe that he would win the match. I had to make a great effort and fight hard, but I am very happy to have succeeded. Today I played good tennis."

Another tennis fan

"I don't do the scouting, my coach and analyst do that. When I say I love watching tennis, it's more for pleasure. We put a lot of energy into the game plan and the things I have to do the day after and also on the same day. Everything is easier when you know the opponent. Now that I've been on the circuit for a few years, there aren't many players I haven't faced, so I know their tennis and they know mine. That's why you have to constantly improve to make it difficult for your opponent."
