19 of the Russian's 21 victories have been earned on hard courts
A revitalized the Russian player won his initial championship for 882 days with success over opponent Moutet in the Almaty Open championship match.
The Russian, a former top-ranked player, has endured a difficult year, achieving just one win at the big events and experiencing a meltdown at the New York tournament.
Medvedev's unpredictability on the professional circuit - and struggles with his service game in especial - led to him dropping out of the elite rankings and eventually splitting with former trainer Cervara.
Presently working with his coach and his other coach, he has consistently improved in the recent weeks - culminating in a closely contested competitive triumph over opponent Corentin Moutet.
It is the player's first title following the Rome competition and first on a hard surface from spring of that year.
Success also indicates he has secured twenty-one championships at twenty-one distinct competitions.
"This marks the first occasion I have attended a event with my both daughters together, so to win a title is especially meaningful," commented ranked player the champion.
"This title is in dedication of my younger daughter her name, because the initial championship I got when my first daughter my daughter was born was for her."
Medvedev, the former major winner, had failed in his previous six title deciders, featuring in that event earlier this year.
His defensive approach and recurring emotional displays on court had led commentators to wonder if his skill to play at the elite level was finished.
However the athlete has altered his approach in the last few weeks, striving to advance forward and perform positively, reinforced by an enhanced service.
He fought back from a disadvantage in the opening set against the tricky Moutet, securing four of the concluding five points to take the lead.
The pair exchanged service breaks in the following set before the challenger, bidding for his first professional championship, took control to force a decider.
The opponent rescued four early chances in a close final set before the champion won the break to fifteen to close out the victory.
Fittingly, Medvedev earned the win with a rally at the net area, with Moutet unable to handle a volley after a lengthy match.
