Like all good things, though, his run came to an end at the hands of Kazakhstan’s Alexey Kedriouk today. Rohan played like he did all week, serving well and going for the winners, but his opponent was simply better in this encounter, winning this match 6-2, 6-3. He did not concede even an inch through the clash, and made sure the momentum was with him in every point. His powerful groundstrokes hit deep to the corners of the court made Rohan scamper many times in an attempt to reach the ball, but usually in vain. After an hour and thirteen minutes, Kedriouk had made a place for himself in the final.

Fot the title, he will take on second seeded German Alexander Satschko, who defeated another qualifier, Bulgarian Simeon Ivanov 6-1, 6-4, in the second semi-final of the day. An inconsistent Ivanov paid the price for too many unforced errors and the German did not have much trouble to earn himself a shot at the title.
