Nineteen of Daniil Medvedev's 21 championships have been earned on hard courts
A revitalized Medvedev claimed his initial trophy for 882 days with a win over Frenchman Moutet in the Almaty Open championship match.
The athlete, a ex- number one, has experienced a challenging season, winning just one match at the major tournaments and suffering a difficult moment at the New York tournament.
His varied form on the professional circuit - and difficulties with his serve in especial - resulted in him falling of the world's top 10 and eventually parting ways with long-term coach Cervara.
Now working with his coach and his other coach, he has gradually advanced in the past month - peaking in a tightly fought competitive victory over opponent Moutet.
It is his maiden title following the Rome competition and maiden on a hard surface since March of the previous year.
The win also indicates Medvedev has achieved 21 titles at twenty-one various competitions.
"For the first time I am participating in a competition with my two daughters at once, so to win a title is really nice," said ranked player Daniil Medvedev.
"This championship is in honour of my younger daughter my daughter, because the maiden victory I got when my first daughter Alisa was born was for her."
Medvedev, the past champion, had failed in his previous six finals, comprising in the German tournament previously this season.
His counter-punching play style and regular outbursts on the tennis court had caused some to wonder if his skill to compete at the elite level was finished.
However the player has implemented adjustments in the past month, making an effort to approach the net and perform positively, reinforced by an better serve.
The champion recovered from a disadvantage in the initial set against the difficult Moutet, winning 4 of the final five exchanges to go ahead.
The pair swapped service breaks in the middle set before Moutet, attempting for his first professional championship, gained dominance to push for a final set.
He saved 4 initial chances in a close final set before the Russian broke to that score to close out the victory.
Appropriately, he earned the title with a shot at the front of the court, with the Frenchman failing to manage a return after two hours and 38 minutes.
