19 of the Russian's twenty-one championships have been achieved on hard courts
A resurgent Daniil Medvedev won his initial championship for nearly 30 months with victory over Frenchman Moutet in the competition title decider.
The athlete, a ex- world number one, has had a difficult year, managing just one win at the big events and undergoing a meltdown at the New York tournament.
The player's unpredictability on the professional circuit - and struggles with his serve in especial - resulted in him falling of the elite rankings and finally splitting with long-time coach his previous coach.
Currently training with Thomas Johansson and Goetzke, Medvedev has gradually progressed in the recent weeks - peaking in a hard-fought competitive victory over challenger Moutet.
This represents his first championship following the Rome competition and first on a hard surface since March of that year.
Success also indicates Medvedev has secured twenty-one victories at 21 various competitions.
"It's the first time I'm at a competition with my two daughters together, so to get a championship is particularly special," commented ranked player Medvedev.
"This championship is in tribute of my child my daughter, because the first title I won when my child her name was born was for her."
The tennis star, the past champion, had failed in his last six finals, comprising in that event previously this season.
His counter-punching approach and regular outbursts on the playing surface had prompted commentators to question if his skill to compete at the elite level was over.
But the player has made changes in the past month, making an effort to come to the net and compete aggressively, supported by an improved service.
The champion fought back from a deficit in the initial set against the challenging Frenchman, securing 4 of the final five games to gain the advantage.
The competitors swapped break points in the following set before the Frenchman, attempting for his first professional victory, seized the initiative to create a final set.
He defended 4 early-game opportunities in a close final set before Medvedev won the break to 15 to close out the victory.
Appropriately, he earned the title with a point at the net area, with the Frenchman unable to control a volley after over two and a half hours.
