19 of Medvedev's twenty-one titles have been earned on hardcourt
A resurgent Daniil Medvedev claimed his maiden trophy for 882 days with success over opponent Moutet in the tournament final.
Medvedev, a ex- top-ranked player, has had a torrid period, managing just one win at the big events and experiencing a meltdown at the US Open.
Medvedev's unpredictability on the professional circuit - and struggles with his serve in specific - resulted in him exiting of the elite rankings and finally separating with long-term mentor Cervara.
Now training with his coach and Goetzke, Medvedev has steadily advanced in the past month - peaking in a closely contested three-set victory over challenger Moutet.
This represents Medvedev's maiden trophy after the 2023 Rome Masters and first on a hardcourt from March of the previous year.
The win also means Medvedev has achieved twenty-one victories at 21 various competitions.
"This marks the first occasion I am participating in a competition with my both daughters simultaneously, so to get a trophy is particularly special," stated ranked player Daniil Medvedev.
"This title is in tribute of my younger daughter Victoria, because the maiden victory I achieved when my older daughter her name was born was for her."
The tennis star, the 2021 US Open champion, had lost his past six title deciders, comprising in the German tournament in the past months.
Medvedev's defensive approach and recurring emotional displays on the playing surface had prompted commentators to wonder if his capacity to play at the top level was concluded.
But the athlete has made changes in the past month, attempting to approach the net and play aggressively, supported by an better service.
He recovered from a deficit in the first set against the challenging opponent, securing four of the last five points to take the lead.
Both players swapped breaks in the middle set before Moutet, striving for his maiden tour championship, gained dominance to create a third set.
Moutet rescued 4 initial break points in a tight final set before Medvedev won the break to that score to close out the victory.
Appropriately, the winner clinched the title with a shot at the net, with the Frenchman incapable to control a shot after over two and a half hours.
