19 of Daniil Medvedev's 21 titles have been earned on hard surfaces

A comeback Medvedev secured his maiden title for over two years with victory over Corentin Moutet in the tournament title decider.

The Russian, a former number one, has endured a challenging period, winning just one win at the big events and experiencing a difficult moment at the US Open.

His inconsistency on the professional circuit - and issues with his service game in particular - resulted in him exiting of the elite rankings and finally parting ways with former trainer Cervara.

Now training with his coach and his other coach, he has steadily advanced in the recent weeks - climaxing in a tightly fought competitive win over challenger Moutet.

This represents the player's maiden trophy following the Italian tournament and first on a hard surface from that period of 2023.

Victory also means the Russian has achieved 21 titles at 21 various tournaments.

"For the first time I have attended a competition with my both daughters at once, so to secure a title is really nice," stated tennis professional Daniil Medvedev.

"This title is in dedication of my second daughter Victoria, because the initial championship I achieved when my child my daughter was delivered was for her."

The tennis star, the past champion, had failed in his previous six championship matches, featuring in that event earlier this year.

His counter-punching strategy and recurring reactions on the playing surface had led observers to doubt if his ability to compete at the elite level was concluded.

However the athlete has altered his approach in the past month, striving to approach the net and play aggressively, reinforced by an better serving game.

The champion recovered from a deficit in the first set against the difficult Frenchman, securing 4 of the concluding five points to take the lead.

Both players traded breaks in the following set before Moutet, bidding for his initial tour title, seized the initiative to create a final set.

He defended four early opportunities in a competitive third set before Medvedev broke to fifteen to serve for the match.

Fittingly, the winner clinched victory with a point at the front of the court, with his opponent incapable to control a volley after a lengthy match.
