After dropping a 6-4, 6-7(6), 6-3 loss to Jannik Sinner within the Monte-Carlo quarterfinals, Holger Rune has taken to social media to complain to the ATP Tour.

The Dane, who made an harmless gesture to hush the gang and was given a warning for unsportsmanlike conduct at 5-5 within the second set (along with a time violation warning, which prompted the incident), says he felt he has been given poor remedy by the tour.

Editor’s Word: Rune could also be carrying some baggage with regard to Dumusois, who mistakenly known as him “Casper” throughout a match at Basel final yr.

Rune would argue his case on courtroom with umpire Damien Dumusois and match supervisor Cedric Mourier to no avail, however he did go on to avoid wasting a pair match factors and drive a decider earlier than dropping in three units.

The Dane took offense to a social media submit of the purpose earlier than the warning got here, and lashed out on the tour about what he perceived to be favoritism.

“Which means what @atptour …..?” Rune wrote in reply to the ATP’s submit. “Not that you just gave me the perfect circumstances within the first place having to play 2 matches the day earlier than ending late, leaving nearly no restoration time. Chair Umpire making essential errors and giving unsuitable warning that disturbed the sport. Could the drive be with you, Jesus Christ!”
