Nineteen of Daniil Medvedev's 21 championships have been earned on hardcourt
A revitalized the Russian player won his initial championship for over two years with victory over Frenchman Moutet in the tournament championship match.
The athlete, a former number one, has endured a torrid year, managing just one match at the big events and experiencing a setback at the American major.
His varied form on the tennis tour - and struggles with his serve in particular - resulted in him exiting of the top ten and finally splitting with long-time coach his previous coach.
Currently training with Thomas Johansson and Goetzke, he has gradually advanced in the past month - climaxing in a closely contested 7-5 4-6 6-3 victory over opponent Corentin Moutet.
This marks the player's initial trophy following the Italian tournament and first on a hard surface after March of the previous year.
Success also indicates he has secured 21 titles at twenty-one various competitions.
"It's the first time I'm at a tournament with my children together, so to win a championship is especially meaningful," said tennis professional the champion.
"This title is in dedication of my younger daughter her name, because the maiden victory I got when my first daughter Alisa was born was for her."
The athlete, the past champion, had been defeated in his past six finals, featuring in Halle earlier this year.
His counter-punching strategy and frequent reactions on the tennis court had prompted observers to doubt if his ability to compete at the top level was concluded.
But the athlete has made changes in the last few weeks, striving to approach the net and play assertively, reinforced by an better serving game.
He recovered from a disadvantage in the first set against the tricky Frenchman, taking 4 of the final five exchanges to take the lead.
The pair exchanged breaks in the second set before Moutet, striving for his first ATP Tour title, seized the initiative to push for a decider.
The opponent defended 4 early-game opportunities in a tight deciding set before the champion won the break to that score to secure the win.
Suitably, the winner clinched the title with a rally at the net area, with the Frenchman unable to manage a volley after two hours and 38 minutes.
