Nineteen of Medvedev's twenty-one victories have been achieved on hard surfaces
A revitalized Daniil Medvedev secured his first championship for over two years with success over opponent Moutet in the competition final.
The athlete, a former world number one, has experienced a challenging year, winning just one match at the major tournaments and undergoing a meltdown at the US Open.
His varied form on the ATP Tour - and difficulties with his serving in especial - led to him falling of the world's top 10 and finally parting ways with former mentor his previous coach.
Currently training with Thomas Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, he has consistently advanced in the last few weeks - peaking in a closely contested 7-5 4-6 6-3 victory over challenger Moutet.
This represents Medvedev's initial title after the 2023 Rome Masters and first on a hardcourt since March of the previous year.
The win also signifies he has secured twenty-one championships at twenty-one distinct tournaments.
"For the first time I have attended a tournament with my two daughters at once, so to get a trophy is particularly special," commented ranked player the champion.
"This victory is in honour of my second daughter Victoria, because the initial championship I got when my first daughter my daughter was born was for her."
The tennis star, the former major winner, had failed in his last six title deciders, including in that event earlier this year.
His counter-punching strategy and regular emotional displays on court had led some to question if his capacity to perform at the elite level was over.
But the player has made changes in the past month, striving to come to the net and perform positively, backed up by an better serve.
The champion fought back from a deficit in the first set against the difficult Frenchman, winning four of the concluding five games to gain the advantage.
The pair exchanged breaks in the following set before Moutet, attempting for his first ATP Tour championship, seized the initiative to create a final set.
He defended 4 initial chances in a tight deciding set before the Russian secured a break to 15 to secure the win.
Fittingly, the winner earned the title with a point at the net, with his opponent incapable to control a shot after two hours and 38 minutes.
