Nineteen of Medvedev's twenty-one championships have been earned on hardcourt
A comeback Medvedev claimed his initial championship for over two years with a win over Frenchman Moutet in the Almaty Open championship match.
The Russian, a ex- world number one, has endured a difficult year, winning just a single victory at the Grand Slams and undergoing a difficult moment at the New York tournament.
Medvedev's unpredictability on the professional circuit - and struggles with his serving in specific - caused him falling of the world's top 10 and finally parting ways with long-time mentor Gilles Cervara.
Presently working with Thomas Johansson and his other coach, Medvedev has steadily improved in the past month - culminating in a closely contested 7-5 4-6 6-3 triumph over challenger Moutet.
This represents the player's initial title since the Rome competition and maiden on a hard surface after spring of that year.
The win also signifies he has secured 21 championships at twenty-one various events.
"It's the first time I am participating in a tournament with my both daughters together, so to get a championship is really nice," commented world number 14 Daniil Medvedev.
"This championship is in honour of my child her name, because the initial championship I won when my older daughter Alisa was born was for her."
The athlete, the 2021 US Open champion, had been defeated in his previous six finals, including in that event previously this season.
Medvedev's retrieving strategy and regular outbursts on the tennis court had prompted some to question if his ability to play at the top level was finished.
Yet the 29-year-old has implemented adjustments in the past month, making an effort to come to the net and compete aggressively, reinforced by an improved serving game.
Medvedev fought back from a deficit in the first set against the tricky Frenchman, taking four of the last five exchanges to take the lead.
The pair swapped service breaks in the middle set before the challenger, attempting for his first professional victory, took control to create a decider.
He defended 4 initial break points in a competitive deciding set before the champion secured a break to 15 to secure the win.
Appropriately, the winner clinched the win with a point at the net, with Moutet unable to manage a return after two hours and 38 minutes.
