Nguyen, world No 486, defeated Japanese Rio Noguchi 6-4, 6-2 in the final which was postponed due to heavy rain on Sunday when Nguyen led 4-2 in the first set.

It was his second title in two weeks after he won the Tour M25 I last Monday, beating Vietnam No 1 Ly Hoang Nam 6-3, 7-6.

The doubles title went to Noguchi and his Russian partner Alexey Zakharov after winning 6-7 (5), 6-4, 10-6 over Samuel Beren of America and Billy Harris of England.
