19 of Medvedev's twenty-one victories have been won on hard surfaces
A resurgent the Russian player secured his initial trophy for over two years with a win over Frenchman Moutet in the Almaty Open championship match.
The athlete, a ex- world number one, has endured a challenging year, managing just a single victory at the Grand Slams and suffering a meltdown at the US Open.
His unpredictability on the professional circuit - and issues with his service game in specific - resulted in him dropping out of the elite rankings and finally separating with long-term mentor Cervara.
Currently working with Thomas Johansson and Goetzke, the tennis star has steadily advanced in the recent weeks - culminating in a tightly fought 7-5 4-6 6-3 victory over challenger Moutet.
This marks the player's first title following the Rome competition and first on a hard court from spring of 2023.
Victory also signifies he has secured 21 championships at twenty-one various events.
"It's the first time I am participating in a tournament with my two daughters together, so to secure a title is really nice," stated ranked player Daniil Medvedev.
"This victory is in dedication of my younger daughter her name, because the initial championship I got when my first daughter her name was born was for her."
The tennis star, the former major winner, had been defeated in his last six title deciders, featuring in that event previously this season.
His retrieving play style and regular reactions on the tennis court had caused observers to doubt if his skill to compete at the elite level was over.
But the player has altered his approach in the past month, making an effort to come to the net and perform aggressively, reinforced by an enhanced serve.
The champion came back from a break down in the initial set against the tricky Moutet, taking four of the final five points to take the lead.
The competitors exchanged break points in the second set before the challenger, attempting for his maiden professional victory, gained dominance to force a decider.
The opponent rescued 4 early-game opportunities in a close deciding set before the champion broke to fifteen to secure the win.
Appropriately, the winner clinched the title with a rally at the net, with Moutet failing to manage a shot after a lengthy match.
