Nineteen of Medvedev's 21 championships have been achieved on hard courts
A comeback Daniil Medvedev won his first championship for 882 days with victory over Corentin Moutet in the tournament final.
Medvedev, a former world number one, has had a difficult period, winning just one match at the Grand Slams and experiencing a meltdown at the New York tournament.
The player's varied form on the tennis tour - and struggles with his service game in specific - caused him dropping out of the elite rankings and eventually separating with former trainer Gilles Cervara.
Presently training with Thomas Johansson and Goetzke, Medvedev has gradually advanced in the last few weeks - culminating in a hard-fought 7-5 4-6 6-3 win over Frenchman Corentin Moutet.
This represents the player's initial title after the Rome competition and maiden on a hardcourt after March of that year.
The win also signifies the Russian has won 21 victories at 21 distinct competitions.
"This marks the first occasion I'm at a competition with my children at once, so to get a championship is particularly special," commented ranked player Daniil Medvedev.
"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 former major winner, had been defeated in his last six championship matches, comprising in Halle earlier this year.
His retrieving approach and recurring emotional displays on court had prompted observers to question if his capacity to perform at the highest level was concluded.
But the athlete has made changes in recent weeks, attempting to advance forward and play assertively, backed up by an improved serve.
The champion recovered from a break down in the opening set against the tricky Frenchman, winning four of the final five points to gain the advantage.
The pair exchanged break points in the middle set before the challenger, striving for his first professional victory, took control to create a decider.
He defended 4 initial break points in a competitive third set before the Russian won the break to fifteen to secure the win.
Suitably, Medvedev clinched victory with a shot at the front of the court, with the Frenchman unable to control a return after over two and a half hours.
