19 of Medvedev's twenty-one championships have been won on hard surfaces
A revitalized the Russian player claimed his first championship for over two years with success over opponent Moutet in the Almaty Open title decider.
The Russian, a former number one, has endured a challenging year, achieving just one win at the Grand Slams and undergoing a difficult moment at the New York tournament.
Medvedev's varied form on the professional circuit - and issues with his service game in particular - caused him dropping out of the world's top 10 and finally splitting with long-term mentor his previous coach.
Currently collaborating with Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, Medvedev has steadily progressed in the recent weeks - culminating in a hard-fought three-set triumph over challenger Corentin Moutet.
This marks his first championship since the Rome competition and initial on a hardcourt since spring of 2023.
Victory also signifies he has won 21 victories at 21 different tournaments.
"This marks the first occasion I am participating in a tournament with my both daughters together, so to secure a championship is especially meaningful," stated world number 14 Medvedev.
"This victory is in tribute of my second daughter my daughter, because the first title I got when my child Alisa was delivered was for her."
Medvedev, the 2021 US Open champion, had failed in his past six title deciders, featuring in the German tournament in the past months.
The player's counter-punching approach and recurring emotional displays on the tennis court had caused observers to doubt if his skill to perform at the elite level was over.
Yet the athlete has implemented adjustments in the past month, striving to advance forward and play aggressively, reinforced by an better service.
He came back from a disadvantage in the opening set against the tricky opponent, winning four of the final five games to take the lead.
The pair traded service breaks in the middle set before Moutet, bidding for his initial tour title, gained dominance to force a final set.
The opponent defended four early-game chances in a close third set before the Russian broke to 15 to secure the win.
Fittingly, Medvedev clinched victory with a rally at the front of the court, with the Frenchman incapable to handle a return after two hours and 38 minutes.
