Blue straggler stars in old open clusters exhibit a Kraft break in rotation, with rapid rotators above the break and slow rotators below, indicating their envelopes behave like those of single stars.

Capture-driven growth model predicts M ≈ 10^5 M_⊙ × (σ/50 km s^{-1})^{2.5}, requiring the M-σ relation to flatten to 2.26 < β < 2.5 below 10^5 M_⊙.
Blue straggler stars in old open clusters predominantly appear near the terminal-age main sequence because mass transfer from asymptotic giant branch donors enriches their cores with helium.
