Nineteen of Daniil Medvedev's 21 victories have been won on hardcourt
A revitalized the Russian player claimed his initial trophy for nearly 30 months with victory over Frenchman Moutet in the Almaty Open final.
The athlete, a former world number one, has had a difficult period, winning just a single victory at the major tournaments and undergoing a meltdown at the US Open.
Medvedev's inconsistency on the professional circuit - and struggles with his serve in particular - caused him exiting of the top ten and ultimately splitting with long-term mentor Gilles Cervara.
Presently training with Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, he has gradually improved in the recent weeks - climaxing in a tightly fought competitive win over opponent Moutet.
This marks Medvedev's maiden trophy following the 2023 Rome Masters and maiden on a hard court after that period of the previous year.
Success also indicates the Russian has secured 21 titles at 21 different tournaments.
"This marks the first occasion I am participating in a tournament with my children together, so to get a title is especially meaningful," said world number 14 Daniil Medvedev.
"This victory is in honour of my second daughter her name, because the maiden victory I won when my child my daughter was delivered was for her."
The athlete, the 2021 US Open champion, had lost his previous six championship matches, comprising in the German tournament previously this season.
His defensive approach and frequent reactions on the tennis court had caused commentators to wonder if his skill to compete at the highest level was concluded.
But the player has made changes in the past month, striving to advance forward and compete aggressively, supported by an better service.
Medvedev came back from a break down in the first set against the difficult Frenchman, winning 4 of the last five points to gain the advantage.
The pair swapped break points in the second set before the Frenchman, bidding for his first professional championship, took control to push for a third set.
The opponent saved four early break points in a competitive third set before the Russian broke to fifteen to secure the win.
Suitably, he earned the win with a point at the net area, with his opponent unable to handle a return after two hours and 38 minutes.
