Rodionov won against Prajnesh Gunneswaran 6: 2, 3: 6, 6: 3, in the final he meets the American Mackenzie McDonald, who beat Henri Laaksonen outright.
Rodionov thus has the chance of his fourth title on the ATP Challenger Tour.
The 21-year-old already has a new career high when he reaches the finals. With a live ranking he is in 139th place. If he won, he would crack the top 130. And follow in the footsteps of Sebastian Ofner: He won in Nur-Sultan in 2018.
