Leo Borg, whose father is the legendary Björn who won the Stockholm Open in 1980, can thus make his debut on the ATP tour as an 18-year-old.

Borg, who is not even ranked among the world's 2000 best players, will face Tommy Paul, who is 53rd in the world.

The 24-year-old American has played in the main tournament in all Grand Slam tournaments except at Wimbledon where he was knocked out in the qualifiers and is making his sixth year on the tour.

- It feels great to give Leo the chance and it will be a good experience after playing some challengers this year.

He also trains quite often with ATP players and is in the top 15 among the juniors in the world.

He has had a very good year on the junior tour and is constantly developing, says Enqvist.

This year, Borg has played in two qualifiers on the ATP tour and was beaten directly in Båstad and Marbella.

For the Stockholm Open, Borg had received a wildcard for the qualifiers, which is upgraded to apply to the main tournament.

You do not think the step will be too big?

- The qualifier was also very tough.

It is clear that it is a tough match for Leo.

In terms of play, he is very good and he does not need to feel any pressure to win.

The important thing is that he gets to make a good match and gain experience for the future, Enqvist thinks.

The legend Murray on site in Stockholm

Andy Murray, 34, may be the emotionally biggest name of the year at the Stockholm Open.

The shots have come back after several career-threatening hip surgeries.

- It's a legend and it's going to be great fun to have him with us.

He came yesterday to prepare, says Enqvist who is happy to highlight ninth-ranked Jannick Sinner, 20, who is now top-seeded in Stockholm.

- I think it can be a future world number one, says Enqviist.

144-ranked Murray enters on Monday or Tuesday night against a qualifier and meets, if he wins in the first round, Sinner, gets to rest in the first round, already in the second round.

Zverev's departure is a surprise

Det var en ”black friday” när turneringens tre högst seedade spelare med OS-mästaren Alexander Zverev (världsfyra) i spetsen hoppade av på ett bräde. Även norrmannen Casper Ruud (åtta) och Huberts Hurkacz (tia) hoppade av när de nådde ATP-slutspelet i Turin som inleds nästa söndag, dagen efter Stockholm Open-finalen. 

- It was a bit turbulent and boring, but when you are scheduled the week before such a big tournament as the ATP playoffs, it can unfortunately be a bit of a player dropout as the players naturally prioritize coming as fresh as possible to such an important competition.

Until yesterday we had all indications that Zverev would come but then he felt that he started to get very, very tired after the tournament win in Vienna and many late matches in Paris (going on right now), including a three-hour match against Dimitrov, so it is not much to say about, says Enqvist.

Was there an agreement with Ruud and Hurkacz that they would drop out of the Stockholm Open if they went to the ATP playoffs?

- No, no, absolutely not.

It does not work that way, says Enqvist.

Under Felix Auger-Aliassime's name (eleven in the world), however, there is a note that he would come to Stockholm provided that he did not qualify for the ATP playoffs.

There was a plan for Zverev in Turin

Were you surprised that Zverev accepted the Stockholm Open, which has a final on Saturday afternoon, which is followed by the ATP play-off, which has its first single at lunchtime already on Sunday?

- All players who come to events later are admitted as late as possible.

If Zverev played here and won the final on Saturday, he would have played on Monday in Turin.

You did not react to the fact that the schedule between the Stockholm Open and the ATP playoffs is very tight?

- No, we knew that when we had to change our week and the players are quite used to having it that way and often they play several competitions in a row, Enqvist explains.
