Pablo Cuevas of Uruguay claimed his fourth ATP singles title with a 6-4 6-7 (7-5) 6-4 victory over Guido Pella of Argentina in the final of the Rio Open on Sunday.
The match was delayed for more than three hours by a torrential downpour with the first set tied at 3-3.
Cuevas, who defeated Rafael Nadal in the semifinals, came out of the break fresher than Pella, a first-time ATP Tour finalist.
The Rio Open was plagued by rain all week and the men's final was played in a sparsely filled center-court stadium.
