Nineteen of Medvedev's 21 titles have been achieved on hard surfaces
A resurgent Medvedev secured his initial trophy for nearly 30 months with victory over Corentin Moutet in the Almaty Open championship match.
The Russian, a former top-ranked player, has endured a challenging season, achieving just one win at the big events and undergoing a setback at the US Open.
Medvedev's unpredictability on the ATP Tour - and issues with his serving in particular - caused him exiting of the elite rankings and finally splitting with long-time coach Gilles Cervara.
Currently working with Thomas Johansson and Goetzke, he has consistently improved in the recent weeks - culminating in a hard-fought competitive triumph over Frenchman Moutet.
This represents his maiden title following the Rome competition and first on a hardcourt from March of 2023.
The win also signifies he has secured twenty-one titles at 21 different tournaments.
"For the first time I'm at a tournament with my both daughters together, so to win a trophy is particularly special," said ranked player Daniil Medvedev.
"This title is in tribute of my second daughter her name, because the initial championship I got when my first daughter Alisa was born was for her."
The tennis star, the past champion, had been defeated in his previous six title deciders, comprising in the German tournament earlier this year.
His retrieving approach and recurring emotional displays on the playing surface had led observers to wonder if his skill to perform at the elite level was concluded.
Yet the athlete has altered his approach in the past month, attempting to advance forward and play aggressively, supported by an better service.
The champion recovered from a disadvantage in the initial set against the difficult Frenchman, taking four of the concluding five games to go ahead.
The pair exchanged service breaks in the second set before Moutet, striving for his initial ATP Tour title, took control to push for a final set.
The opponent saved 4 early opportunities in a close deciding set before the Russian secured a break to fifteen to close out the victory.
Suitably, the winner earned victory with a rally at the net area, with the Frenchman incapable to manage a return after a lengthy match.
