Nineteen of the Russian's twenty-one championships have been won on hard surfaces
A revitalized Daniil Medvedev secured his first championship for nearly 30 months with a win over Frenchman Moutet in the tournament title decider.
The athlete, a former top-ranked player, has endured a difficult period, managing just a single victory at the major tournaments and suffering a meltdown at the US Open.
His inconsistency on the professional circuit - and struggles with his service game in particular - resulted in him falling of the world's top 10 and finally splitting with long-time trainer Gilles Cervara.
Currently collaborating with Thomas Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, he has steadily advanced in the past month - peaking in a hard-fought competitive triumph over Frenchman Moutet.
It is the player's initial title since the Italian tournament and initial on a hardcourt after March of that year.
Victory also means the Russian has secured 21 titles at twenty-one distinct events.
"For the first time I have attended a tournament with my two daughters at once, so to get a trophy is especially meaningful," commented tennis professional Daniil Medvedev.
"This victory is in honour of my child Victoria, because the initial championship I won when my child her name was born was for her."
The tennis star, the former major winner, had failed in his previous six title deciders, comprising in that event earlier this year.
Medvedev's defensive approach and regular emotional displays on the playing surface had prompted some to wonder if his skill to perform at the top level was concluded.
But the player has implemented adjustments in the last few weeks, striving to approach the net and perform positively, reinforced by an improved serve.
He came back from a break down in the first set against the difficult Moutet, winning four of the concluding five games to gain the advantage.
The pair traded break points in the following set before Moutet, striving for his maiden professional victory, seized the initiative to push for a third set.
The opponent rescued four early-game break points in a competitive deciding set before the Russian won the break to 15 to serve for the match.
Suitably, he secured the win with a shot at the net, with Moutet unable to control a volley after over two and a half hours.
