19 of Daniil Medvedev's twenty-one championships have been achieved on hardcourt
A comeback the Russian player won his initial championship for over two years with a win over Frenchman Moutet in the tournament title decider.
The Russian, a ex- number one, has experienced a difficult year, managing just one match at the big events and undergoing a meltdown at the American major.
The player's varied form on the professional circuit - and issues with his service game in especial - led to him dropping out of the top ten and eventually splitting with long-time trainer Gilles Cervara.
Presently collaborating with Johansson and his other coach, he has consistently advanced in the recent weeks - peaking in a tightly fought three-set victory over challenger Corentin Moutet.
This represents Medvedev's initial title following the Italian tournament and first on a hard surface from spring of that year.
Success also signifies he has secured 21 titles at twenty-one different tournaments.
"This marks the first occasion I have attended a event with my children together, so to secure a trophy is particularly special," commented world number 14 Medvedev.
"This title is in honour of my younger daughter my daughter, because the first title I achieved when my older daughter her name was delivered was for her."
The athlete, the 2021 US Open champion, had lost his last six title deciders, including in the German tournament earlier this year.
His counter-punching strategy and frequent emotional displays on court had caused commentators to doubt if his ability to perform at the highest level was concluded.
However the 29-year-old has implemented adjustments in recent weeks, striving to advance forward and play assertively, backed up by an better serving game.
The champion fought back from a break down in the first set against the challenging Frenchman, securing 4 of the final five points to gain the advantage.
The competitors traded service breaks in the following set before the challenger, striving for his first ATP Tour victory, took control to create a third set.
He defended 4 early-game opportunities in a competitive final set before Medvedev won the break to fifteen to secure the win.
Suitably, he earned victory with a point at the net, with Moutet failing to manage a return after two hours and 38 minutes.
