19 of Daniil Medvedev's twenty-one titles have been earned on hard courts
A resurgent Medvedev won his initial title for 882 days with success over opponent Moutet in the competition championship match.
The Russian, a former world number one, has experienced a torrid season, winning just a single victory at the major tournaments and experiencing a meltdown at the US Open.
The player's unpredictability on the ATP Tour - and struggles with his serving in particular - led to him falling of the top ten and eventually separating with former mentor his previous coach.
Now collaborating with Thomas Johansson and his other coach, the tennis star has gradually improved in the last few weeks - climaxing in a closely contested three-set triumph over Frenchman Corentin Moutet.
It is Medvedev's initial title after the Rome competition and maiden on a hard surface from March of that year.
The win also indicates he has achieved twenty-one championships at 21 various tournaments.
"For the first time I am participating in a event with my both daughters at once, so to get a trophy is particularly special," commented tennis professional the champion.
"This title is in tribute of my younger daughter her name, because the initial championship I won when my older daughter her name was delivered was for her."
The tennis star, the 2021 US Open champion, had lost his last six title deciders, including in Halle previously this season.
Medvedev's retrieving strategy and recurring outbursts on the playing surface had prompted observers to doubt if his ability to perform at the elite level was finished.
But the player has implemented adjustments in recent weeks, striving to advance forward and play assertively, supported by an enhanced service.
The champion recovered from a deficit in the opening set against the tricky Frenchman, winning four of the last five games to gain the advantage.
Both players traded service breaks in the middle set before the challenger, striving for his maiden tour championship, gained dominance to create a decider.
The opponent defended 4 initial chances in a tight third set before the Russian won the break to that score to serve for the match.
Suitably, he secured victory with a shot at the front of the court, with his opponent unable to handle a volley after over two and a half hours.
