Tabilosavedtwomatch points to force atiebreak in the third set and set up his own championship point with a drop-shot. The 28-year-old fell to the floor as exhausted Musetti's forehand hit the net, sealing the Chilean's third ATP 250 title.

"It's been a very, very tough year. Lots of injuries. So, just being here right now, it's unbelievable. I still can't believe it," said Tabilo, ranked 112th in the world.

Italy's Musetti, who reached the French Open semifinals this year, has now lost the Chengdu Open final twice in a row, having gone down to China's Shang Juncheng last year.
