Nineteen of Daniil Medvedev's twenty-one victories have been achieved on hard courts
A revitalized the Russian player won his maiden championship for 882 days with success over Frenchman Moutet in the Almaty Open championship match.
The Russian, a ex- top-ranked player, has experienced a torrid period, achieving just one match at the major tournaments and undergoing a meltdown at the US Open.
The player's varied form on the professional circuit - and issues with his service game in particular - led to him exiting of the world's top 10 and ultimately separating with long-time trainer his previous coach.
Presently working with Johansson and Goetzke, Medvedev has gradually improved in the recent weeks - climaxing in a closely contested competitive win over Frenchman Moutet.
It is his first title following the Rome competition and initial on a hard surface after that period of the previous year.
Success also indicates Medvedev has achieved 21 championships at 21 different tournaments.
"For the first time I am participating in a event with my two daughters together, so to get a title is really nice," stated tennis professional the champion.
"This title is in tribute of my child her name, because the first title I got when my first daughter her name was born was for her."
The tennis star, the past champion, had failed in his last six championship matches, including in Halle previously this season.
Medvedev's retrieving approach and recurring reactions on the tennis court had caused commentators to doubt if his ability to perform at the elite level was over.
However the player has made changes in the past month, striving to come to the net and perform positively, reinforced by an improved serve.
Medvedev fought back from a break down in the first set against the difficult Frenchman, securing 4 of the last five games to go ahead.
The pair traded breaks in the middle set before the challenger, attempting for his initial ATP Tour championship, seized the initiative to create a decider.
He defended 4 early-game opportunities in a close third set before the Russian won the break to that score to secure the win.
Appropriately, the winner clinched the win with a point at the front of the court, with his opponent unable to control a volley after a lengthy match.
