Nineteen of the Russian's twenty-one titles have been won on hard surfaces

A resurgent the Russian player secured his maiden championship for over two years with success over Corentin Moutet in the competition championship match.

The Russian, a former world number one, has experienced a challenging season, managing just one match at the Grand Slams and undergoing a setback at the New York tournament.

Medvedev's varied form on the tennis tour - and struggles with his serving in especial - resulted in him exiting of the top ten and ultimately separating with long-time mentor Gilles Cervara.

Presently collaborating with Thomas Johansson and Goetzke, he has gradually improved in the last few weeks - climaxing in a tightly fought three-set triumph over opponent Corentin Moutet.

This marks Medvedev's maiden championship since the Rome competition and maiden on a hard surface since that period of the previous year.

Victory also indicates he has secured twenty-one championships at twenty-one various tournaments.

"This marks the first occasion I am participating in a tournament with my both daughters together, so to win a title is really nice," said world number 14 Medvedev.

"This victory is in tribute of my second daughter Victoria, because the initial championship I achieved when my child Alisa was delivered was for her."

The athlete, the past champion, had lost his past six finals, comprising in the German tournament previously this season.

Medvedev's retrieving strategy and recurring outbursts on court had prompted observers to wonder if his ability to compete at the top level was over.

However the athlete has implemented adjustments in recent weeks, attempting to advance forward and perform positively, reinforced by an improved serving game.

He came back from a break down in the opening set against the difficult Moutet, taking 4 of the concluding five games to gain the advantage.

Both players exchanged break points in the following set before Moutet, striving for his first ATP Tour championship, gained dominance to force a third set.

He rescued four early-game opportunities in a competitive deciding set before the champion broke to fifteen to close out the victory.

Fittingly, Medvedev earned the win with a point at the front of the court, with the Frenchman unable to control a return after over two and a half hours.
