Nineteen of the Russian's 21 victories have been achieved on hard surfaces

A resurgent Medvedev secured his maiden championship for 882 days with success over Corentin Moutet in the competition championship match.

The athlete, a former number one, has experienced a challenging season, managing just one match at the major tournaments and suffering a meltdown at the US Open.

The player's varied form on the professional circuit - and difficulties with his serving in specific - led to him dropping out of the elite rankings and eventually separating with long-time mentor his previous coach.

Presently working with Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, Medvedev has consistently progressed in the recent weeks - climaxing in a hard-fought three-set win over opponent Moutet.

This represents his initial title following the Rome competition and first on a hard surface from spring of 2023.

The win also signifies he has won twenty-one titles at twenty-one various events.

"It's the first time I'm at a competition with my children simultaneously, so to win a trophy is really nice," stated ranked player the champion.

"This championship is in honour of my younger daughter Victoria, because the initial championship I got when my child her name was born was for her."

The tennis star, the past champion, had lost his last six championship matches, including in Halle in the past months.

Medvedev's retrieving approach and frequent emotional displays on the playing surface had led observers to doubt if his ability to perform at the highest level was over.

Yet the player has implemented adjustments in recent weeks, attempting to come to the net and perform aggressively, supported by an better serving game.

He fought back from a deficit in the initial set against the difficult Moutet, winning 4 of the final five exchanges to go ahead.

The competitors swapped service breaks in the middle set before the Frenchman, striving for his initial ATP Tour championship, gained dominance to force a third set.

He defended 4 early-game opportunities in a competitive deciding set before the Russian won the break to fifteen to close out the victory.

Appropriately, the winner earned victory with a shot at the net, with his opponent incapable to control a shot after two hours and 38 minutes.
