The 23-year-old from Lower Austria defeated Gabriel Diallo (CAN) in the quarter-finals of the 118,000-euro challenger on Friday with 2:6.7:5.6:1 and will therefore hardly ever be placed 119th from Monday. If he reaches the final again, he overtakes Austria’s number one, Dominic Thiem (currently 110th).

Thiem has only 20 points more in the live ranking than Rodionov. In the event of a tournament victory, Rodionov only just misses the first entry into the top 100.

In Mexico City, Maximilian Neuchrist has already qualified for the semi-finals of the $160,000 challenger. The 31-year-old qualifier from Vienna could crack the top 200 for the first time with another win.
