19 of the Russian's twenty-one championships have been earned on hardcourt
A revitalized the Russian player won his initial championship for 882 days with a win over opponent Moutet in the tournament championship match.
The athlete, a former number one, has endured a challenging period, achieving just one match at the major tournaments and suffering a difficult moment at the New York tournament.
The player's unpredictability on the professional circuit - and issues with his serving in especial - resulted in him dropping out of the world's top 10 and eventually separating with long-term mentor Gilles Cervara.
Currently working with Thomas Johansson and his other coach, the tennis star has steadily advanced in the last few weeks - climaxing in a tightly fought three-set win over opponent Moutet.
This represents his first championship since the 2023 Rome Masters and first on a hardcourt since that period of the previous year.
Success also signifies Medvedev has secured twenty-one championships at twenty-one distinct events.
"It's the first time I am participating in a tournament with my both daughters together, so to secure a championship is particularly special," commented ranked player the champion.
"This title is in honour of my younger daughter Victoria, because the initial championship I achieved when my child Alisa was born was for her."
The athlete, the former major winner, had been defeated in his previous six finals, including in the German tournament previously this season.
His counter-punching strategy and recurring outbursts on the tennis court had led some to wonder if his skill to play at the elite level was concluded.
But the 29-year-old has altered his approach in recent weeks, making an effort to come to the net and perform positively, backed up by an improved serving game.
The champion fought back from a disadvantage in the first set against the difficult Moutet, taking 4 of the last five games to gain the advantage.
The pair exchanged breaks in the following set before Moutet, bidding for his maiden ATP Tour championship, seized the initiative to push for a final set.
The opponent saved four early chances in a close final set before Medvedev secured a break to fifteen to secure the win.
Suitably, Medvedev clinched victory with a shot at the net area, with Moutet incapable to handle a shot after two hours and 38 minutes.
