19 of Daniil Medvedev's 21 championships have been won on hard surfaces
A resurgent the Russian player won his first trophy for over two years with success over Corentin Moutet in the tournament championship match.
The athlete, a former world number one, has had a difficult year, winning just a single victory at the Grand Slams and undergoing a setback at the US Open.
His varied form on the professional circuit - and struggles with his serve in specific - led to him exiting of the elite rankings and eventually parting ways with long-term mentor his previous coach.
Now collaborating with his coach and his other coach, the tennis star has steadily advanced in the last few weeks - culminating in a hard-fought three-set triumph over challenger Moutet.
This represents his first championship following the Italian tournament and first on a hard court since spring of that year.
Success also means Medvedev has achieved twenty-one victories at 21 various competitions.
"It's the first time I am participating in a event with my children simultaneously, so to get a championship is especially meaningful," commented world number 14 Daniil Medvedev.
"This championship is in honour of my child her name, because the first title I got when my child her name was delivered was for her."
Medvedev, the past champion, had lost his past six finals, comprising in that event earlier this year.
Medvedev's retrieving approach and recurring outbursts on the tennis court had caused some to question if his capacity to compete at the highest level was over.
But the 29-year-old has altered his approach in the last few weeks, striving to advance forward and play positively, reinforced by an enhanced serve.
The champion fought back from a break down in the initial set against the difficult opponent, winning four of the last five games to gain the advantage.
The pair traded service breaks in the second set before Moutet, attempting for his initial tour title, gained dominance to create a third set.
He rescued 4 early-game chances in a tight third set before the Russian secured a break to fifteen to secure the win.
Fittingly, he earned the win with a shot at the net area, with Moutet unable to handle a shot after two hours and 38 minutes.
