Davidovich Fokina, who defeated Taylor Fritz in the quarter-finals, shut the door on the American in straight games, 6-2 7-5.
Earlier, seventh seed Australian Alex de Minaur blew hot and cold in his semi-final meeting with Corentin Moutet of France but was able to grind out a 6-4 6-3 win over the lucky loser.
De Minaur will also return to the top 10 after reaching the final.
