19 of the Russian's 21 victories have been won on hard surfaces
A resurgent Daniil Medvedev claimed his first trophy for nearly 30 months with success over Frenchman Moutet in the tournament final.
Medvedev, a ex- world number one, has endured a difficult year, managing just a single victory at the major tournaments and experiencing a meltdown at the New York tournament.
Medvedev's unpredictability on the professional circuit - and issues with his serving in specific - resulted in him exiting of the top ten and eventually parting ways with long-term trainer Cervara.
Now working with Thomas Johansson and his other coach, he has consistently improved in the past month - culminating in a tightly fought competitive win over challenger Corentin Moutet.
This represents his initial trophy following the Italian tournament and initial on a hard court after that period of the previous year.
The win also indicates the Russian has secured 21 victories at twenty-one various competitions.
"For the first time I'm at a competition with my both daughters simultaneously, so to get a title is particularly special," stated ranked player Daniil Medvedev.
"This title is in tribute of my younger daughter her name, because the first title I won when my older daughter her name was born was for her."
The tennis star, the 2021 US Open champion, had lost his last six championship matches, including in that event in the past months.
Medvedev's retrieving approach and regular emotional displays on the tennis court had caused commentators to doubt if his skill to compete at the highest level was over.
However the 29-year-old has made changes in recent weeks, making an effort to approach the net and compete assertively, backed up by an enhanced serve.
He fought back from a disadvantage in the first set against the challenging Frenchman, securing 4 of the final five exchanges to go ahead.
Both players swapped breaks in the second set before Moutet, bidding for his first tour championship, took control to create a third set.
He saved four early break points in a competitive third set before Medvedev won the break to fifteen to close out the victory.
Appropriately, Medvedev earned the title with a shot at the front of the court, with the Frenchman unable to handle a shot after two hours and 38 minutes.
