RESULTS: Colombian Open, Bogota, Colombia

Final:
[3] Miguel Angel Rodriguez (COL) bt [1] Olli Tuominen (FIN) 9-11, 11-9, 11-5, 11-5 (54m)


Spurred on by his jubilant home club crowd, local hero Miguel Angel Rodriguez upset top-seeded Finn Olli Tuominen in the final of the Colombian Open to win the $30,000 PSA World Tour squash title at Club El Nogal in the capital Bogota.

"The final was certainly the best match of the tournament, with two vibrant games in the beginning that perfectly defined what was going to be Miguel Rodriguez's second victory in his third final of the Colombian Squash Open," said tournament spokesman Juan Carlos Santacruz.

Tuominen, the world No25 from Helsinki, forced his opponent to all corners of the court to win the opening game. But Rodriguez showed more patience in the second and, at nine-all, played two cross-court winners to tie the match.

"Without doubt, this game was a turning point in the match," said Santacruz.

Maintaining his pressure and forcing Tuominen to make errors, Rodriguez rook the third game in just eight minutes as the crowd sensed a possible local triumph.

At 3-2 up in the fourth, Tuominen became increasingly frustrated and committed eight unforced errors in a row to give the 24-year-old world No32 from Bogota - Colombia's highest-ranked player of all-time - the advantage.

The Finn refocused, but it was too late as Rodriguez finally converted his third match ball to celebrate a popular 9-11, 11-9, 11-5, 11-5 triumph after 54 minutes.

The victory marked the Colombian's second title success in the event since 2008.
