19 of Medvedev's 21 championships have been achieved on hard courts

A resurgent the Russian player claimed his first championship for nearly 30 months with a win over Corentin Moutet in the competition final.

Medvedev, a former number one, has endured a challenging season, managing just one win at the major tournaments and suffering a setback at the New York tournament.

Medvedev's inconsistency on the ATP Tour - and difficulties with his service game in especial - led to him dropping out of the world's top 10 and eventually separating with long-term coach Gilles Cervara.

Presently collaborating with his coach and Goetzke, he has steadily progressed in the past month - climaxing in a hard-fought 7-5 4-6 6-3 win over Frenchman Moutet.

This marks Medvedev's initial championship after the Italian tournament and initial on a hard surface since that period of the previous year.

The win also indicates Medvedev has achieved 21 titles at 21 distinct competitions.

"It's the first time I have attended a tournament with my both daughters together, so to win a championship is especially meaningful," said tennis professional Daniil Medvedev.

"This championship is in tribute of my child her name, because the initial championship I achieved when my first daughter my daughter was born was for her."

The athlete, the past champion, had failed in his previous six finals, featuring in the German tournament earlier this year.

His counter-punching strategy and frequent reactions on court had prompted commentators to doubt if his ability to play at the highest level was finished.

However the player has made changes in the last few weeks, striving to advance forward and perform positively, supported by an improved service.

The champion recovered from a disadvantage in the initial set against the challenging Moutet, winning 4 of the concluding five points to take the lead.

The competitors exchanged breaks in the following set before the Frenchman, striving for his first professional victory, seized the initiative to force a third set.

Moutet saved four early opportunities in a tight final set before the champion broke to fifteen to secure the win.

Suitably, he earned the title with a shot at the net, with the Frenchman incapable to manage a volley after a lengthy match.
