Nineteen of Daniil Medvedev's twenty-one victories have been achieved on hard surfaces
A resurgent Medvedev won his maiden title for nearly 30 months with success over opponent Moutet in the competition championship match.
Medvedev, a ex- number one, has endured a difficult season, achieving just a single victory at the Grand Slams and suffering a meltdown at the New York tournament.
Medvedev's inconsistency on the ATP Tour - and difficulties with his serve in specific - led to him exiting of the world's top 10 and eventually separating with long-time mentor Cervara.
Now working with Thomas Johansson and Goetzke, Medvedev has steadily progressed in the recent weeks - culminating in a closely contested 7-5 4-6 6-3 victory over challenger Moutet.
This marks his maiden trophy since the Italian tournament and initial on a hard court from March of 2023.
Victory also indicates the Russian has won 21 titles at twenty-one distinct events.
"For the first time I'm at a competition with my both daughters simultaneously, so to win a championship is really nice," stated world number 14 Daniil Medvedev.
"This title is in tribute of my child her name, because the initial championship I won when my first daughter my daughter was born was for her."
Medvedev, the past champion, had been defeated in his last six championship matches, comprising in that event previously this season.
The player's counter-punching approach and frequent emotional displays on court had prompted commentators to doubt if his ability to play at the elite level was concluded.
But the player has altered his approach in the last few weeks, making an effort to come to the net and play assertively, supported by an better serving game.
He fought back from a deficit in the initial set against the tricky opponent, securing 4 of the last five games to go ahead.
The competitors traded break points in the following set before Moutet, bidding for his maiden ATP Tour title, took control to push for a final set.
He rescued four early-game opportunities in a tight deciding set before the Russian won the break to that score to secure the win.
Suitably, he secured the win with a rally at the net, with the Frenchman incapable to handle a return after two hours and 38 minutes.
