The on-again, off-again partnership is off again as Rune and coach Mouratoglou have split again.

Rune announced the split on social media and said he will continue working with coach Kenneth Carlsen and plans to continue training at the Mouratoglou Academy.

“I have had some good talks with Patrick, and we mutually decided to part ways,” Rune said in an Instagram post. “He will always be a great friend, but for now, the best setup for me is to continue with Kenneth who will be present at all practices and tournaments.

“Nothing change in my relation to Mouratoglou academy who always have been very helpful to me. I am looking forward to being healthy and back on track again.”

The former world No. 4 has slipped to No. 17 in the ranking and was knocked out of this week’s Olympic Games due to a left wrist injury.

At the start of this season, Rune’s coaching team was Hall of Famer Boris Becker and Severin Luthi, former coach of Roger Federer. By February, that team was done.

Though Rune opened the season reaching the Brisbane final and reached semifinals or better at three of his first five tournaments this season, his level of play hasn’t advanced.

The 21-year-old Rune has fallen out of the Top 10 while young rivals are thriving. World No. 1 Jannik Sinner opened the season winning his maiden major at the Australian Open and Carlos Alcaraz captured his maiden Roland Garros crown then backed it up successfully defending Wimbledon.

At Roland Garros, Rune built a two sets to one lead over Alexander Zverev but faded bowing in five sets in the round of 16. Rune reached the round of 16 at Wimbledon where he was crushed by Novak Djokovic.

Now, Rune is focusing on recovering from his left wrist injury and getting back out on court.
