19 of the Russian's twenty-one titles have been achieved on hard surfaces
A resurgent Medvedev won his first championship for 882 days with victory over Frenchman Moutet in the tournament title decider.
The Russian, a ex- top-ranked player, has endured a difficult year, winning just a single victory at the Grand Slams and suffering a setback at the New York tournament.
Medvedev's inconsistency on the ATP Tour - and issues with his serving in especial - resulted in him exiting of the elite rankings and ultimately splitting with long-term coach Gilles Cervara.
Currently working with Thomas Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, he has consistently improved in the last few weeks - culminating in a closely contested 7-5 4-6 6-3 win over opponent Corentin Moutet.
This marks Medvedev's initial trophy following the 2023 Rome Masters and initial on a hard court from that period of 2023.
The win also signifies Medvedev has won twenty-one championships at 21 distinct events.
"This marks the first occasion I am participating in a competition with my two daughters at once, so to secure a title is particularly special," commented ranked player Medvedev.
"This title is in dedication of my child Victoria, because the maiden victory I achieved when my older daughter her name was delivered was for her."
The athlete, the former major winner, had failed in his previous six title deciders, comprising in Halle previously this season.
His defensive strategy and regular reactions on the tennis court had prompted some to doubt if his capacity to play at the top level was finished.
However the athlete has implemented adjustments in recent weeks, attempting to advance forward and compete positively, supported by an better serving game.
The champion came back from a deficit in the first set against the tricky opponent, securing four of the concluding five exchanges to go ahead.
The competitors swapped service breaks in the second set before the challenger, bidding for his initial professional victory, seized the initiative to push for a third set.
He saved four early opportunities in a close third set before the Russian won the break to 15 to close out the victory.
Suitably, Medvedev earned the win with a rally at the net, with the Frenchman incapable to manage a return after two hours and 38 minutes.
