19 of the Russian's twenty-one victories have been won on hard courts
A revitalized the Russian player secured his first championship for over two years with success over opponent Moutet in the Almaty Open championship match.
The Russian, a ex- top-ranked player, has had a challenging period, winning just one match at the big events and suffering a meltdown at the US Open.
Medvedev's unpredictability on the professional circuit - and difficulties with his serve in particular - resulted in him falling of the elite rankings and finally separating with long-time coach his previous coach.
Now training with Thomas Johansson and his other coach, he has consistently advanced in the past month - culminating in a hard-fought 7-5 4-6 6-3 victory over Frenchman Moutet.
It is Medvedev's maiden title following the Italian tournament and first on a hardcourt after spring of that year.
The win also signifies he has secured 21 championships at 21 distinct events.
"It's the first time I'm at a competition with my children together, so to win a championship is particularly special," said tennis professional Daniil Medvedev.
"This title is in tribute of my child my daughter, because the first title I achieved when my first daughter Alisa was born was for her."
The athlete, the former major winner, had been defeated in his past six finals, comprising in Halle earlier this year.
His retrieving strategy and recurring reactions on the playing surface had led commentators to wonder if his ability to play at the highest level was finished.
However the 29-year-old has implemented adjustments in the last few weeks, making an effort to approach the net and perform assertively, reinforced by an improved service.
Medvedev came back from a disadvantage in the initial set against the tricky Moutet, winning four of the last five points to take the lead.
The competitors traded breaks in the following set before the Frenchman, attempting for his maiden professional victory, seized the initiative to create a decider.
He defended four early-game chances in a close third set before the Russian secured a break to 15 to serve for the match.
Fittingly, Medvedev clinched the win with a rally at the net, with his opponent unable to manage a shot after two hours and 38 minutes.
