Local favourite Robin Soderling will play David Ferrer of Spain on Sunday in a Swedish Open final between former champions.
The fifth-ranked Swede routed Tomas Berdych of the Czech Republic 6-1, 6-0, dominating from the back of the clay court and sealing the match with an ace.
The second-seeded Ferrer beat defending champion Nicolas Almagro 6-1, 6-3 in an all-Spanish semi-final.
Soderling won the tournament in 2009, Ferrer in 2007.
“It's rare that (a match) floats so well against such a good player as Berdych. I played really, really well,” Soderling told national news agency TT. “We play pretty similarly, me and him, we're both attacking. I really tried to be the one who came on court and took control today.”
