19 of the Russian's twenty-one titles have been achieved on hard courts
A resurgent Daniil Medvedev won his first championship for 882 days with a win over Corentin Moutet in the competition final.
The Russian, a former top-ranked player, has had a challenging year, achieving just one win at the big events and suffering a difficult moment at the New York tournament.
Medvedev's inconsistency on the professional circuit - and difficulties with his serve in specific - resulted in him falling of the elite rankings and finally parting ways with former coach his previous coach.
Presently working with his coach and his other coach, the tennis star has consistently improved in the last few weeks - climaxing in a tightly fought 7-5 4-6 6-3 victory over Frenchman Corentin Moutet.
This marks his initial title following the 2023 Rome Masters and first on a hard court after March of the previous year.
Success also indicates Medvedev has achieved 21 titles at 21 various events.
"This marks the first occasion I have attended a tournament with my children together, so to win a title is especially meaningful," said ranked player Medvedev.
"This title is in honour of my child her name, because the first title I achieved when my child her name was born was for her."
The athlete, the past champion, had failed in his previous six championship matches, comprising in the German tournament in the past months.
Medvedev's defensive strategy and recurring emotional displays on the playing surface had caused observers to doubt if his ability to compete at the highest level was finished.
Yet the 29-year-old has made changes in recent weeks, making an effort to advance forward and compete assertively, supported by an better serving game.
He came back from a break down in the initial set against the tricky Frenchman, taking 4 of the concluding five points to take the lead.
Both players swapped break points in the following set before the challenger, bidding for his maiden ATP Tour victory, took control to push for a third set.
He rescued 4 early opportunities in a competitive deciding set before the champion won the break to fifteen to secure the win.
Appropriately, Medvedev clinched the win with a point at the net area, with Moutet unable to manage a return after over two and a half hours.
