Aneke Rune, the mother of Holger Rune, recently revealed a horrible message she received after Rune’s Mexican Open semifinal defeat.
Not long after Rune’s semifinal loss 6-3, 3-6, 4-6 to Casper Rudd, Rune’s mother shared the abusive mail she received.
The abuser wrote: “You f*cking son of a wh*re. I’m waiting for you. I will hunt you down and stick a knife in your neck. then I’ll cut off your stupid head. It will be all over the news. Damn, this will be a lesson for the rest. f*cking scum. I’m coming for you. You will die from a dull knife.”
Aneke noted that it was against the law to threaten someone’s life while disclosing the abuser’s email address.
She replied: “If anyone knows this idiot, do tell him that it’s illegal to make death threats.”
😡 Wow, this was an email that Holger Rune’s mother, Aneke, received after his loss to Casper Ruud in Acapulco.
Absolutely DISGUSTING, this person isn’t a tennis fan, they’re just clearly obsessed with money, and have no morals. Players and their teams get messages like this… pic.twitter.com/SCN4q3VLkO
