19 of the Russian's twenty-one championships have been earned on hard surfaces
A resurgent the Russian player won his first title for over two years with victory over opponent Moutet in the Almaty Open final.
The Russian, a ex- top-ranked player, has experienced a torrid season, managing just a single victory at the big events and undergoing a setback at the New York tournament.
His inconsistency on the ATP Tour - and difficulties with his serving in particular - led to him exiting of the world's top 10 and ultimately separating with former coach Gilles Cervara.
Currently collaborating with Thomas Johansson and Goetzke, Medvedev has consistently advanced in the recent weeks - climaxing in a closely contested three-set victory over opponent Moutet.
It is Medvedev's initial trophy following the 2023 Rome Masters and maiden on a hard surface from that period of that year.
Victory also indicates Medvedev has won 21 victories at twenty-one distinct events.
"It's the first time I am participating in a competition with my two daughters together, so to secure a trophy is especially meaningful," said tennis professional the champion.
"This title is in honour of my second daughter her name, because the maiden victory I got when my child Alisa was born was for her."
Medvedev, the past champion, had failed in his past six finals, comprising in the German tournament earlier this year.
Medvedev's counter-punching approach and frequent outbursts on the playing surface had led observers to doubt if his skill to perform at the elite level was concluded.
Yet the player has implemented adjustments in recent weeks, attempting to approach the net and play aggressively, supported by an improved serve.
The champion fought back from a break down in the first set against the tricky opponent, securing 4 of the concluding five points to go ahead.
The competitors exchanged break points in the second set before Moutet, attempting for his first professional title, took control to push for a decider.
He rescued 4 early break points in a tight final set before the champion broke to fifteen to serve for the match.
Suitably, he clinched the win with a shot at the net, with his opponent failing to control a return after two hours and 38 minutes.
