19 of Daniil Medvedev's 21 titles have been earned on hardcourt
A revitalized the Russian player claimed his maiden championship for nearly 30 months with victory over Frenchman Moutet in the tournament championship match.
The Russian, a ex- number one, has had a torrid season, winning just one win at the major tournaments and experiencing a setback at the US Open.
His varied form on the ATP Tour - and issues with his serve in specific - caused him falling of the world's top 10 and eventually separating with long-time coach his previous coach.
Now training with Thomas Johansson and Goetzke, Medvedev has steadily progressed in the recent weeks - peaking in a hard-fought three-set triumph over Frenchman Moutet.
This marks the player's initial championship since the 2023 Rome Masters and first on a hardcourt since spring of the previous year.
Success also means Medvedev has won 21 championships at twenty-one various tournaments.
"For the first time I'm at a competition with my both daughters together, so to secure a championship is really nice," said world number 14 the champion.
"This championship is in tribute of my child her name, because the maiden victory I got when my first daughter her name was born was for her."
Medvedev, the past champion, had been defeated in his last six championship matches, comprising in the German tournament earlier this year.
His counter-punching play style and recurring emotional displays on the playing surface had led observers to wonder if his skill to play at the top level was concluded.
But the athlete has altered his approach in the last few weeks, striving to advance forward and perform positively, supported by an improved serve.
Medvedev came back from a disadvantage in the first set against the tricky Moutet, winning 4 of the final five games to take the lead.
The pair traded breaks in the middle set before Moutet, attempting for his first ATP Tour title, seized the initiative to push for a third set.
He saved 4 early chances in a competitive final set before Medvedev won the break to fifteen to serve for the match.
Appropriately, he clinched the win with a point at the front of the court, with his opponent failing to manage a volley after a lengthy match.
