19 of the Russian's twenty-one victories have been earned on hardcourt
A resurgent the Russian player claimed his initial trophy for 882 days with victory over opponent Moutet in the Almaty Open championship match.
The Russian, a ex- world number one, has had a challenging season, managing just one match at the Grand Slams and undergoing a difficult moment at the US Open.
His inconsistency on the ATP Tour - and issues with his serving in especial - resulted in him exiting of the top ten and eventually parting ways with former coach Cervara.
Currently working with his coach and Goetzke, he has steadily progressed in the past month - peaking in a hard-fought 7-5 4-6 6-3 triumph over opponent Moutet.
This marks Medvedev's initial title since the Rome competition and initial on a hardcourt since spring of the previous year.
Success also indicates he has won twenty-one victories at twenty-one different competitions.
"This marks the first occasion I am participating in a competition with my children at once, so to win a title is particularly special," commented ranked player the champion.
"This victory is in dedication of my child my daughter, because the first title I won when my first daughter her name was born was for her."
The athlete, the past champion, had lost his past six title deciders, comprising in the German tournament previously this season.
Medvedev's counter-punching strategy and frequent reactions on court had prompted observers to question if his skill to perform at the top level was finished.
But the 29-year-old has made changes in the past month, making an effort to come to the net and compete positively, supported by an improved serve.
The champion recovered from a deficit in the initial set against the tricky Moutet, winning four of the final five exchanges to go ahead.
The pair exchanged breaks in the middle set before Moutet, bidding for his initial professional championship, gained dominance to force a third set.
He rescued 4 early-game opportunities in a close third set before the champion broke to 15 to serve for the match.
Fittingly, the winner clinched the title with a point at the front of the court, with the Frenchman failing to manage a volley after two hours and 38 minutes.
