Nineteen of the Russian's twenty-one championships have been earned on hard courts
A resurgent Daniil Medvedev claimed his first trophy for nearly 30 months with victory over opponent Moutet in the competition final.
The athlete, a former world number one, has endured a torrid season, achieving just a single victory at the major tournaments and undergoing a difficult moment at the American major.
The player's inconsistency on the ATP Tour - and struggles with his serving in especial - caused him exiting of the top ten and ultimately separating with former mentor Gilles Cervara.
Presently working with Thomas Johansson and Goetzke, the tennis star has gradually progressed in the last few weeks - culminating in a hard-fought 7-5 4-6 6-3 victory over challenger Moutet.
This represents the player's initial title after the Rome competition and first on a hardcourt since spring of that year.
The win also means Medvedev has secured 21 victories at twenty-one different tournaments.
"This marks the first occasion I have attended a competition with my both daughters together, so to get a title is particularly special," commented tennis professional the champion.
"This victory is in tribute of my child Victoria, because the maiden victory I got when my older daughter Alisa was born was for her."
Medvedev, the 2021 US Open champion, had been defeated in his previous six title deciders, featuring in that event in the past months.
His retrieving play style and recurring outbursts on the tennis court had prompted observers to question if his capacity to compete at the highest level was finished.
Yet the player has altered his approach in the last few weeks, striving to come to the net and play positively, supported by an improved serve.
The champion came back from a break down in the opening set against the tricky opponent, winning four of the final five points to gain the advantage.
The competitors exchanged breaks in the middle set before Moutet, attempting for his first ATP Tour title, gained dominance to push for a decider.
The opponent saved 4 early-game break points in a close deciding set before the Russian secured a break to fifteen to serve for the match.
Suitably, he clinched the title with a shot at the front of the court, with Moutet failing to manage a return after two hours and 38 minutes.
