19 of Medvedev's twenty-one titles have been earned on hard courts
A comeback the Russian player won his maiden championship for nearly 30 months with a win over Corentin Moutet in the Almaty Open title decider.
The Russian, a former top-ranked player, has had a difficult season, winning just one win at the big events and experiencing a meltdown at the US Open.
His varied form on the tennis tour - and issues with his service game in especial - caused him exiting of the elite rankings and finally splitting with former trainer Gilles Cervara.
Presently working with his coach and his other coach, he has gradually progressed in the last few weeks - culminating in a closely contested competitive victory over Frenchman Moutet.
This represents the player's maiden championship following the Italian tournament and first on a hardcourt after March of that year.
Success also signifies he has won 21 victories at twenty-one distinct tournaments.
"This marks the first occasion I'm at a tournament with my both daughters simultaneously, so to secure a trophy is really nice," stated world number 14 Medvedev.
"This title is in tribute of my younger daughter her name, because the initial championship I achieved when my older daughter Alisa was born was for her."
The athlete, the past champion, had lost his past six finals, comprising in the German tournament previously this season.
His retrieving approach and frequent outbursts on the tennis court had prompted some to wonder if his skill to compete at the elite level was concluded.
Yet the athlete has altered his approach in the past month, making an effort to come to the net and perform aggressively, backed up by an enhanced serving game.
The champion came back from a deficit in the first set against the difficult Moutet, taking four of the concluding five exchanges to take the lead.
The pair traded breaks in the middle set before the Frenchman, bidding for his maiden ATP Tour title, seized the initiative to create a decider.
He saved 4 early opportunities in a competitive deciding set before the champion won the break to 15 to secure the win.
Fittingly, the winner clinched the win with a point at the net area, with his opponent incapable to control a return after over two and a half hours.
