19 of the Russian's twenty-one victories have been achieved on hard courts
A resurgent Medvedev secured his first trophy for nearly 30 months with a win over Frenchman Moutet in the Almaty Open final.
Medvedev, a ex- top-ranked player, has experienced a difficult season, achieving just a single victory at the big events and undergoing a setback at the American major.
Medvedev's unpredictability on the professional circuit - and issues with his serve in specific - led to him falling of the elite rankings and eventually splitting with long-time mentor Gilles Cervara.
Now collaborating with his coach and his other coach, he has steadily progressed in the past month - peaking in a hard-fought 7-5 4-6 6-3 triumph over challenger Moutet.
This marks Medvedev's maiden trophy since the Rome competition and first on a hard court from March of that year.
Success also signifies the Russian has secured 21 titles at 21 various events.
"It's the first time I am participating in a tournament with my children together, so to win a title is particularly special," said world number 14 Daniil Medvedev.
"This championship is in honour of my second daughter Victoria, because the maiden victory I achieved when my child Alisa was born was for her."
The athlete, the past champion, had been defeated in his past six championship matches, including in Halle earlier this year.
Medvedev's defensive approach and recurring reactions on the tennis court had led commentators to wonder if his skill to play at the highest level was concluded.
However the athlete has altered his approach in recent weeks, attempting to advance forward and play assertively, supported by an better service.
Medvedev fought back from a deficit in the opening set against the challenging Moutet, winning 4 of the concluding five points to take the lead.
The competitors traded break points in the middle set before the Frenchman, attempting for his first tour title, seized the initiative to create a third set.
Moutet saved 4 early-game opportunities in a competitive deciding set before the Russian secured a break to that score to secure the win.
Appropriately, the winner clinched the win with a point at the front of the court, with the Frenchman failing to manage a shot after two hours and 38 minutes.
