Nineteen of the Russian's 21 victories have been earned on hardcourt
A comeback the Russian player won his first championship for nearly 30 months with a win over Frenchman Moutet in the competition championship match.
The Russian, a former top-ranked player, has endured a difficult season, achieving just one win at the big events and suffering a setback at the American major.
His unpredictability on the professional circuit - and issues with his serving in specific - resulted in him dropping out of the elite rankings and eventually parting ways with long-term coach his previous coach.
Presently working with Thomas Johansson and his other coach, Medvedev has consistently progressed in the recent weeks - climaxing in a hard-fought 7-5 4-6 6-3 victory over Frenchman Moutet.
This represents his initial title following the Rome competition and first on a hard court since March of that year.
The win also means he has secured 21 titles at 21 distinct competitions.
"For the first time I'm at a event with my two daughters together, so to win a title is really nice," stated tennis professional Daniil Medvedev.
"This title is in honour of my younger daughter my daughter, because the maiden victory I won when my first daughter Alisa was born was for her."
The athlete, the former major winner, had been defeated in his previous six title deciders, comprising in the German tournament earlier this year.
His defensive play style and frequent reactions on the tennis court had prompted some to doubt if his skill to perform at the highest level was over.
However the player has made changes in the past month, making an effort to advance forward and compete positively, supported by an better service.
He fought back from a deficit in the first set against the difficult Moutet, winning four of the final five games to take the lead.
The pair exchanged break points in the following set before the challenger, bidding for his first ATP Tour title, seized the initiative to create a final set.
He saved 4 early break points in a competitive third set before Medvedev won the break to 15 to serve for the match.
Appropriately, Medvedev secured the title with a rally at the net area, with Moutet incapable to control a shot after two hours and 38 minutes.
