19 of the Russian's twenty-one championships have been achieved on hard surfaces
A revitalized Daniil Medvedev won his maiden championship for nearly 30 months with a win over Corentin Moutet in the tournament final.
Medvedev, a former world number one, has endured a challenging period, achieving just one win at the big events and suffering a difficult moment at the American major.
His varied form on the ATP Tour - and struggles with his serving in especial - resulted in him exiting of the world's top 10 and finally separating with long-time mentor his previous coach.
Presently working with his coach and Rohan Goetzke, the tennis star has gradually improved in the last few weeks - culminating in a closely contested three-set triumph over challenger Corentin Moutet.
It is the player's first trophy after the Rome competition and first on a hard court after spring of the previous year.
Success also means he has achieved 21 championships at twenty-one various events.
"It's the first time I am participating in a competition with my two daughters at once, so to secure a title is really nice," said world number 14 Daniil Medvedev.
"This victory is in dedication of my younger daughter her name, because the first title I got when my child Alisa was born was for her."
The tennis star, the past champion, had failed in his last six title deciders, comprising in that event earlier this year.
The player's defensive approach and frequent outbursts on the tennis court had prompted observers to question if his skill to compete at the highest level was concluded.
However the player has implemented adjustments in the past month, making an effort to approach the net and perform aggressively, backed up by an better service.
He recovered from a break down in the initial set against the tricky Frenchman, taking 4 of the final five exchanges to gain the advantage.
Both players traded breaks in the following set before Moutet, attempting for his maiden professional championship, seized the initiative to create a third set.
The opponent defended 4 early-game opportunities in a close third set before the champion broke to 15 to close out the victory.
Fittingly, Medvedev clinched the win with a rally at the net area, with his opponent unable to control a return after two hours and 38 minutes.
