19 of Medvedev's twenty-one titles have been earned on hardcourt
A revitalized Daniil Medvedev claimed his first title for nearly 30 months with success over opponent Moutet in the competition title decider.
The Russian, a former world number one, has experienced a challenging period, managing just one match at the Grand Slams and suffering a setback at the New York tournament.
His varied form on the ATP Tour - and issues with his serve in especial - resulted in him falling of the world's top 10 and eventually parting ways with long-time mentor Cervara.
Currently collaborating with his coach and Goetzke, Medvedev has steadily advanced in the last few weeks - culminating in a hard-fought three-set triumph over Frenchman Moutet.
This marks the player's maiden championship following the Italian tournament and maiden on a hardcourt after March of that year.
Success also means the Russian has achieved 21 victories at 21 distinct events.
"It's the first time I'm at a tournament with my two daughters simultaneously, so to win a title is especially meaningful," said world number 14 the champion.
"This title is in dedication of my second daughter my daughter, because the initial championship I got when my older daughter Alisa was born was for her."
Medvedev, the past champion, had been defeated in his past six championship matches, comprising in that event previously this season.
His defensive approach and recurring emotional displays on court had led commentators to doubt if his skill to perform at the top level was finished.
But the player has altered his approach in the last few weeks, making an effort to come to the net and compete aggressively, reinforced by an better serve.
The champion came back from a deficit in the opening set against the difficult Moutet, winning 4 of the final five points to take the lead.
The pair exchanged breaks in the middle set before the Frenchman, striving for his initial tour title, seized the initiative to force a decider.
Moutet rescued four early chances in a tight deciding set before Medvedev broke to fifteen to close out the victory.
Appropriately, Medvedev earned the win with a shot at the front of the court, with the Frenchman failing to manage a return after over two and a half hours.
