19 of Daniil Medvedev's twenty-one titles have been earned on hard courts
A comeback Medvedev claimed his maiden championship for 882 days with a win over opponent Moutet in the tournament championship match.
The Russian, a ex- world number one, has had a difficult year, winning just one match at the major tournaments and undergoing a setback at the American major.
Medvedev's varied form on the professional circuit - and issues with his serve in particular - caused him dropping out of the top ten and eventually parting ways with long-term trainer Gilles Cervara.
Now collaborating with Thomas Johansson and his other coach, the tennis star has consistently advanced in the past month - peaking in a tightly fought competitive win over Frenchman Corentin Moutet.
It is Medvedev's first championship following the 2023 Rome Masters and initial on a hard surface after March of that year.
Success also indicates Medvedev has achieved 21 victories at twenty-one distinct competitions.
"It's the first time I am participating in a event with my both daughters simultaneously, so to secure a title is especially meaningful," stated world number 14 Daniil Medvedev.
"This title is in honour of my second daughter Victoria, because the maiden victory I got when my child my daughter was born was for her."
The athlete, the former major winner, had been defeated in his past six title deciders, comprising in the German tournament previously this season.
His retrieving approach and frequent emotional displays on the playing surface had prompted commentators to wonder if his ability to perform at the elite level was finished.
Yet the 29-year-old has made changes in recent weeks, making an effort to approach the net and compete aggressively, reinforced by an better serving game.
Medvedev fought back from a break down in the first set against the difficult Frenchman, winning 4 of the concluding five exchanges to gain the advantage.
Both players exchanged break points in the middle set before the challenger, attempting for his first tour championship, gained dominance to push for a decider.
He saved four early chances in a close final set before Medvedev broke to fifteen to serve for the match.
Suitably, he secured the win with a rally at the net area, with Moutet incapable to manage a shot after two hours and 38 minutes.
