19 of Medvedev's twenty-one championships have been won on hardcourt
A resurgent Medvedev secured his first title for nearly 30 months with victory over opponent Moutet in the competition championship match.
Medvedev, a ex- world number one, has had a difficult period, winning just one win at the major tournaments and experiencing a setback at the American major.
Medvedev's unpredictability on the professional circuit - and issues with his serve in specific - resulted in him dropping out of the top ten and ultimately parting ways with former trainer Cervara.
Currently working with Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, the tennis star has steadily improved in the recent weeks - climaxing in a tightly fought competitive triumph over Frenchman Moutet.
This marks the player's first title following the Rome competition and initial on a hard surface since spring of that year.
Success also signifies the Russian has secured twenty-one championships at 21 various tournaments.
"For the first time I have attended a tournament with my children at once, so to secure a championship is especially meaningful," commented world number 14 Medvedev.
"This title is in dedication of my second daughter her name, because the initial championship I won when my older daughter Alisa was born was for her."
The tennis star, the former major winner, had failed in his last six championship matches, including in Halle earlier this year.
His defensive strategy and frequent emotional displays on court had caused commentators to doubt if his skill to compete at the highest level was finished.
However the 29-year-old has altered his approach in recent weeks, striving to approach the net and compete assertively, backed up by an improved serve.
Medvedev came back from a disadvantage in the first set against the difficult Frenchman, taking 4 of the last five points to take the lead.
Both players exchanged break points in the following set before Moutet, attempting for his initial professional victory, gained dominance to force a third set.
The opponent defended 4 initial opportunities in a competitive final set before Medvedev secured a break to 15 to close out the victory.
Suitably, the winner secured victory with a shot at the front of the court, with Moutet incapable to manage a volley after a lengthy match.
