Ofner lost in the final to Alexander Shevchenko, who was fifth seeded, 5:7 and 2:6. After a three-set win at the beginning of the tournament, the 26-year-old Ofner had made it to the final with three clear wins in two sets.
In the end, however, it wasn't enough to win the fourth tournament at Challenger level against Shevchenko, a protégé of Günter Bresnik.
Most recently, Ofner had won the Challenger tournament in Prague last year
Ofner will make a nice leap in the ATP ranking thanks to the points from Spain, and he is currently 158th in the live world rankings.
