19 of the Russian's twenty-one championships have been won on hard surfaces
A resurgent the Russian player secured his maiden championship for nearly 30 months with success over opponent Moutet in the competition title decider.
The athlete, a former top-ranked player, has had a torrid year, achieving just one win at the big events and suffering a meltdown at the US Open.
His inconsistency on the tennis tour - and issues with his serve in especial - led to him falling of the elite rankings and eventually separating with long-time coach Gilles Cervara.
Currently collaborating with his coach and his other coach, the tennis star has consistently improved in the recent weeks - culminating in a hard-fought competitive win over Frenchman Corentin Moutet.
This marks the player's initial championship since the 2023 Rome Masters and maiden on a hardcourt from spring of 2023.
Success also indicates the Russian has achieved twenty-one championships at twenty-one distinct tournaments.
"This marks the first occasion I have attended a competition with my children together, so to get a title is particularly special," commented world number 14 Medvedev.
"This victory is in dedication of my younger daughter Victoria, because the maiden victory I won when my older daughter her name was born was for her."
Medvedev, the former major winner, had failed in his past six finals, comprising in the German tournament earlier this year.
The player's defensive play style and recurring outbursts on the playing surface had prompted commentators to question if his skill to play at the top level was finished.
However the player has altered his approach in recent weeks, making an effort to approach the net and play aggressively, supported by an better serving game.
The champion recovered from a break down in the opening set against the challenging opponent, securing four of the concluding five games to take the lead.
The competitors swapped breaks in the second set before Moutet, attempting for his first ATP Tour victory, seized the initiative to force a decider.
The opponent defended four early break points in a close deciding set before the champion secured a break to 15 to secure the win.
Fittingly, Medvedev secured victory with a shot at the net area, with Moutet incapable to handle a return after over two and a half hours.
