19 of the Russian's twenty-one victories have been earned on hardcourt
A resurgent Daniil Medvedev won his initial trophy for over two years with victory over opponent Moutet in the Almaty Open championship match.
Medvedev, a former world number one, has had a difficult period, managing just a single victory at the major tournaments and suffering a difficult moment at the New York tournament.
Medvedev's inconsistency on the professional circuit - and struggles with his service game in specific - caused him dropping out of the top ten and eventually parting ways with long-time coach his previous coach.
Now working with Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, the tennis star has gradually improved in the past month - culminating in a hard-fought competitive win over opponent Moutet.
This represents the player's first title following the Rome competition and first on a hard surface from March of that year.
The win also signifies he has achieved twenty-one championships at 21 distinct tournaments.
"It's the first time I have attended a event with my both daughters at once, so to get a championship is really nice," commented tennis professional Daniil Medvedev.
"This championship is in dedication of my child Victoria, because the initial championship I achieved when my first daughter Alisa was born was for her."
The tennis star, the 2021 US Open champion, had been defeated in his last six title deciders, comprising in that event previously this season.
The player's counter-punching strategy and recurring reactions on the playing surface had led some to wonder if his capacity to play at the highest level was concluded.
But the athlete has implemented adjustments in recent weeks, striving to advance forward and compete positively, backed up by an better service.
Medvedev fought back from a break down in the initial set against the difficult Frenchman, taking four of the final five games to go ahead.
The pair swapped service breaks in the following set before the challenger, striving for his initial ATP Tour title, gained dominance to create a third set.
He saved 4 early opportunities in a competitive deciding set before Medvedev broke to fifteen to close out the victory.
Suitably, the winner clinched the win with a shot at the net area, with his opponent unable to handle a shot after over two and a half hours.
