The Russian tennis star Anna Kalinskaya continues her first title of simple Grand Chelem in her career while other players in the male circuit seem to continue.
Kalinskaya, 26, appeared in an interview on Tuesday and said that Danish tennis player Holger Rune was one of the few who had attended his direct messages on social networks.

She said on “First & Red” that she ignored Rune because “think too much of himself”.
“Tennis players-more often before,” she said about who asks her dates. “Now, I’m older. I do not know, for some, it is not at all a chance. No need to write. Someone wrote 10 times then abandoned.
“I’m going to say it now, but Holger Rune. He writes to everyone. He deserves it all. Think too much of himself. But he is not the only one. A couple (more).”

Rune responded to the clip which stormed social media.
“Ha ha ha. We could have cultural differences that make Anna read a comment on a story like an invitation on a date,” he wrote on X. “If I want to go to an appointment, I ask an appointment. Don’t worry.”
Kalinskaya, who previously dated Jannik Sinner from Italy, has a simple title in his name and four double titles. The Grand Slam circuit was a bit difficult for it this year.
She did not participate in the Australian Open and was ousted in the first round of the French Open. She arrived in the second round in Wimbledon and was rebounded in the third round of the US Open. The furthest she has ever obtained during a big slam was the fourth round in Wimbledon in 2024.

Kalinskaya is classified n ° 32 in the world.
