19 of Daniil Medvedev's 21 championships have been achieved on hardcourt
A comeback Medvedev secured his first title for 882 days with a win over Frenchman Moutet in the competition championship match.
The Russian, a ex- number one, has had a torrid season, managing just one win at the Grand Slams and undergoing a setback at the New York tournament.
Medvedev's unpredictability on the ATP Tour - and difficulties with his service game in particular - resulted in him exiting of the top ten and ultimately splitting with former trainer his previous coach.
Currently collaborating with Thomas Johansson and his other coach, he has consistently progressed in the last few weeks - peaking in a hard-fought 7-5 4-6 6-3 win over Frenchman Moutet.
This marks his maiden championship following the Italian tournament and first on a hard court from March of 2023.
Victory also signifies Medvedev has secured 21 victories at twenty-one different tournaments.
"It's the first time I am participating in a competition with my children simultaneously, so to secure a championship is really nice," said ranked player Medvedev.
"This victory is in tribute of my younger daughter my daughter, because the first title I won when my older daughter her name was born was for her."
Medvedev, the 2021 US Open champion, had been defeated in his previous six championship matches, comprising in Halle earlier this year.
His defensive strategy and frequent outbursts on the playing surface had prompted some to question if his skill to compete at the highest level was over.
But the 29-year-old has altered his approach in recent weeks, making an effort to advance forward and perform aggressively, backed up by an better service.
The champion recovered from a break down in the initial set against the challenging opponent, securing 4 of the last five exchanges to go ahead.
Both players traded breaks in the following set before Moutet, striving for his first tour title, seized the initiative to create a decider.
The opponent rescued four early chances in a close third set before the Russian secured a break to fifteen to serve for the match.
Suitably, he earned the win with a point at the net area, with Moutet unable to handle a return after two hours and 38 minutes.
