19 of Daniil Medvedev's twenty-one titles have been achieved on hard courts
A resurgent the Russian player claimed his initial championship for nearly 30 months with victory over opponent Moutet in the competition championship match.
The Russian, a former top-ranked player, has endured a difficult year, achieving just one win at the major tournaments and experiencing a difficult moment at the US Open.
The player's varied form on the tennis tour - and struggles with his serving in specific - caused him falling of the world's top 10 and ultimately parting ways with long-time coach his previous coach.
Now training with Thomas Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, he has gradually improved in the last few weeks - climaxing in a hard-fought 7-5 4-6 6-3 win over Frenchman Moutet.
It is the player's first trophy after the Rome competition and initial on a hard surface since that period of that year.
Victory also means Medvedev has achieved twenty-one titles at twenty-one distinct competitions.
"This marks the first occasion I'm at a event with my two daughters at once, so to win a title is especially meaningful," said ranked player the champion.
"This victory is in honour of my younger daughter my daughter, because the initial championship I got when my child Alisa was born was for her."
The athlete, the 2021 US Open champion, had lost his past six title deciders, including in that event in the past months.
Medvedev's retrieving play style and recurring emotional displays on court had prompted observers to doubt if his capacity to perform at the top level was concluded.
However the player has made changes in the past month, making an effort to come to the net and play aggressively, backed up by an improved serve.
Medvedev fought back from a disadvantage in the opening set against the challenging Moutet, winning 4 of the last five games to go ahead.
The pair swapped breaks in the middle set before the Frenchman, striving for his initial tour championship, took control to force a third set.
The opponent rescued four early-game opportunities in a competitive deciding set before the Russian broke to 15 to secure the win.
Appropriately, he earned the win with a rally at the net area, with his opponent unable to control a return after a lengthy match.
