19 of the Russian's 21 titles have been won on hardcourt
A revitalized the Russian player secured his first title for over two years with a win over opponent Moutet in the tournament final.
The Russian, a former number one, has experienced a torrid season, managing just one win at the Grand Slams and suffering a difficult moment at the US Open.
The player's varied form on the ATP Tour - and struggles with his service game in especial - led to him dropping out of the world's top 10 and ultimately parting ways with former mentor Cervara.
Currently working with Thomas Johansson and his other coach, he has consistently advanced in the last few weeks - peaking in a tightly fought three-set victory over opponent Moutet.
It is the player's initial title following the Rome competition and initial on a hardcourt from spring of 2023.
Success also indicates he has won 21 titles at 21 different events.
"It's the first time I'm at a event with my children together, so to get a trophy is really nice," commented tennis professional the champion.
"This title is in honour of my younger daughter Victoria, because the first title I won when my first daughter my daughter was born was for her."
Medvedev, the former major winner, had been defeated in his last six title deciders, comprising in Halle earlier this year.
Medvedev's retrieving approach and regular reactions on the playing surface had led observers to question if his skill to play at the top level was over.
Yet the athlete has altered his approach in the past month, striving to advance forward and play aggressively, supported by an better service.
He recovered from a disadvantage in the first set against the challenging Frenchman, winning four of the last five points to gain the advantage.
The competitors swapped break points in the middle set before the Frenchman, bidding for his initial tour victory, took control to push for a final set.
Moutet saved 4 initial opportunities in a close final set before the champion won the break to 15 to secure the win.
Suitably, the winner clinched victory with a rally at the net area, with the Frenchman incapable to control a shot after over two and a half hours.
