19 of the Russian's twenty-one titles have been won on hard courts
A revitalized the Russian player secured his maiden trophy for over two years with victory over Frenchman Moutet in the competition title decider.
Medvedev, a former number one, has had a challenging season, managing just a single victory at the Grand Slams and experiencing a difficult moment at the New York tournament.
Medvedev's inconsistency on the tennis tour - and issues with his serving in especial - caused him dropping out of the top ten and ultimately parting ways with former coach Gilles Cervara.
Presently working with Johansson and his other coach, Medvedev has steadily progressed in the past month - peaking in a closely contested competitive victory over Frenchman Corentin Moutet.
This marks Medvedev's first trophy since the Rome competition and initial on a hardcourt after March of 2023.
The win also indicates Medvedev has won twenty-one championships at twenty-one distinct events.
"For the first time I have attended a event with my two daughters at once, so to get a trophy is particularly special," said world number 14 the champion.
"This title is in tribute of my younger daughter my daughter, because the initial championship I achieved when my older daughter her name was born was for her."
Medvedev, the past champion, had failed in his previous six title deciders, comprising in that event previously this season.
The player's retrieving approach and frequent reactions on the playing surface had caused observers to wonder if his skill to compete at the top level was concluded.
Yet the 29-year-old has made changes in the past month, striving to come to the net and play assertively, backed up by an better serving game.
He fought back from a break down in the first set against the difficult opponent, winning four of the concluding five games to gain the advantage.
The pair exchanged service breaks in the middle set before the challenger, striving for his initial ATP Tour championship, gained dominance to create a final set.
Moutet defended 4 early chances in a tight final set before the Russian broke to fifteen to secure the win.
Fittingly, Medvedev secured victory with a point at the net, with his opponent unable to handle a volley after over two and a half hours.
