19 of Medvedev's 21 championships have been earned on hard surfaces
A revitalized Medvedev claimed his first championship for nearly 30 months with victory over Frenchman Moutet in the competition title decider.
The athlete, a ex- world number one, has endured a difficult season, winning just one win at the big events and suffering a difficult moment at the American major.
His inconsistency on the ATP Tour - and issues with his service game in especial - resulted in him falling of the elite rankings and finally separating with former trainer Cervara.
Now training with Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, Medvedev has consistently improved in the recent weeks - peaking in a tightly fought three-set victory over Frenchman Corentin Moutet.
This marks his initial championship since the Rome competition and maiden on a hard surface after spring of the previous year.
Victory also indicates the Russian has won twenty-one titles at twenty-one various competitions.
"For the first time I am participating in a event with my children at once, so to get a championship is especially meaningful," stated world number 14 Daniil Medvedev.
"This title is in tribute of my younger daughter her name, because the maiden victory I got when my older daughter Alisa was delivered was for her."
Medvedev, the past champion, had failed in his past six championship matches, comprising in that event previously this season.
His defensive approach and frequent reactions on court had led commentators to doubt if his capacity to perform at the elite level was finished.
But the 29-year-old has made changes in the last few weeks, attempting to approach the net and perform assertively, backed up by an better service.
The champion came back from a disadvantage in the opening set against the difficult opponent, winning 4 of the last five points to gain the advantage.
The competitors traded breaks in the second set before the Frenchman, striving for his first ATP Tour championship, took control to force a final set.
The opponent defended 4 early-game break points in a competitive final set before the Russian secured a break to 15 to close out the victory.
Appropriately, Medvedev earned the win with a rally at the net area, with Moutet incapable to handle a shot after two hours and 38 minutes.
