I still think it’s too soon to give up on little Holger Rune.
I agree. He's so talented and still young, that I think the worst case scenario is that he wins a handful of big titles and is somewhere in the Tsitsipas range. There are valid reasons to bag on Stefanos, but he's still been a very good, "quasi-elite" player - maybe one of the 20 or so best non-Slam winners.

Holger is also about the same age now as Sinner was at the end of 2022, early 2023. And as we know, Sinner jumped a level at the end of 2023.

Anyhow, I really hope Holger figures it out this coming year. An actualized Rune would make the tour only that much more interesting.
