– We see a great interest in table tennis among the public, not least after the Olympics in Paris. So we are happy to be able to show this final at short notice, says SVT Sports manager Max Bursell.
Chris Härenstam will commentate on the match, where Lin Shidong is the favorite after three consecutive WTT titles in the autumn, which has caused him to rise like a rocket in the rankings from 14th to second place.
27-ranked Källberg has met Lin once, which happened a couple of weeks ago.
– Then I lost 2-3, which shows that I could disturb him. It will be tough, but the chance is there, says Källberg to SVT Sport before the match.
No Swede had even reached the semifinals of a WTT Champions competition before Källberg and Truls Möregårdh met in the semifinals on Saturday.
The final is broadcast on SVT Play 14.55–16.15 on Sunday.
