Christian Olsson makes his debut as an athletics expert on SVT already on Saturday in the pole vault competition from Aspire Dome, Doha, which is broadcast on SVT Play at 17.00.

42-year-old Olsson has an Olympic gold, three World Cup golds and three European Championship golds in three stages and ended his active career in 2012.

- We are very happy to be able to strengthen our team with one of Swedish athletics' biggest names ever.

Christian Olsson has qualities that give him every opportunity to become an excellent athletics expert, says SVT Sports' project manager Max Bursell.

Christian Olsson:

- Incredibly exciting.

TV is a really fun medium to work in and I love athletics.

So to be able to participate on SVT is to get into the fine room.
