19 of Medvedev's twenty-one titles have been achieved on hardcourt
A revitalized Medvedev won his maiden championship for nearly 30 months with success over opponent Moutet in the tournament championship match.
Medvedev, a former top-ranked player, has had a torrid year, winning just one win at the big events and experiencing a meltdown at the American major.
The player's varied form on the ATP Tour - and difficulties with his serving in specific - caused him exiting of the elite rankings and eventually separating with long-time coach Cervara.
Now working with Thomas Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, he has consistently advanced in the last few weeks - peaking in a hard-fought competitive triumph over opponent Moutet.
This represents the player's maiden title after the Rome competition and maiden on a hard surface since March of the previous year.
Victory also means the Russian has won 21 championships at 21 various tournaments.
"This marks the first occasion I am participating in a event with my two daughters together, so to secure a title is really nice," commented tennis professional Medvedev.
"This title is in dedication of my younger daughter Victoria, because the maiden victory I achieved when my child Alisa was born was for her."
The tennis star, the past champion, had been defeated in his last six title deciders, comprising in Halle earlier this year.
The player's defensive approach and recurring emotional displays on court had led some to doubt if his ability to play at the elite level was over.
Yet the athlete has altered his approach in recent weeks, striving to come to the net and perform positively, supported by an better serving game.
He fought back from a deficit in the first set against the challenging Frenchman, securing four of the last five games to go ahead.
The pair traded break points in the following set before the challenger, bidding for his initial ATP Tour victory, took control to push for a third set.
The opponent rescued four early-game break points in a tight deciding set before Medvedev broke to 15 to serve for the match.
Appropriately, the winner earned victory with a point at the net, with his opponent incapable to handle a shot after a lengthy match.
