19 of Daniil Medvedev's 21 titles have been achieved on hard courts
A comeback the Russian player secured his first title for 882 days with a win over Frenchman Moutet in the tournament final.
The athlete, a former world number one, has endured a difficult year, managing just one match at the big events and suffering a setback at the US Open.
Medvedev's varied form on the professional circuit - and difficulties with his service game in especial - led to him dropping out of the elite rankings and eventually separating with long-term mentor Cervara.
Now working with his coach and his other coach, he has gradually improved in the past month - climaxing in a hard-fought competitive triumph over challenger Corentin Moutet.
It is his first trophy since the Rome competition and maiden on a hardcourt after spring of 2023.
The win also signifies he has achieved 21 titles at twenty-one distinct events.
"For the first time I'm at a event with my two daughters at once, so to get a trophy is especially meaningful," stated ranked player the champion.
"This victory is in tribute of my second daughter her name, because the maiden victory I got when my child Alisa was born was for her."
The athlete, the 2021 US Open champion, had failed in his past six title deciders, comprising in that event previously this season.
His defensive approach and frequent outbursts on the tennis court had led commentators to doubt if his capacity to play at the top level was concluded.
But the 29-year-old has altered his approach in the last few weeks, making an effort to approach the net and play positively, backed up by an enhanced serve.
The champion recovered from a disadvantage in the first set against the challenging opponent, securing 4 of the concluding five games to take the lead.
Both players exchanged service breaks in the second set before the Frenchman, attempting for his first tour victory, seized the initiative to create a third set.
The opponent saved 4 initial opportunities in a competitive deciding set before the Russian broke to fifteen to secure the win.
Fittingly, Medvedev earned the win with a shot at the net area, with the Frenchman failing to manage a return after a lengthy match.
