19 of Medvedev's 21 victories have been won on hard surfaces

A resurgent the Russian player secured his first trophy for nearly 30 months with victory over opponent Moutet in the Almaty Open title decider.

The athlete, a former number one, has had a difficult period, managing just one match at the big events and suffering a meltdown at the American major.

Medvedev's varied form on the ATP Tour - and difficulties with his serving in specific - resulted in him dropping out of the world's top 10 and ultimately parting ways with former mentor Cervara.

Currently working with his coach and his other coach, Medvedev has gradually improved in the last few weeks - peaking in a hard-fought competitive triumph over Frenchman Corentin Moutet.

This marks the player's maiden trophy since the Italian tournament and initial on a hard surface from March of that year.

Success also signifies Medvedev has won 21 victories at twenty-one distinct events.

"It's the first time I have attended a competition with my children at once, so to get a trophy is really nice," stated world number 14 Daniil Medvedev.

"This victory is in honour of my second daughter Victoria, because the initial championship I got when my first daughter Alisa was born was for her."

The athlete, the past champion, had been defeated in his previous six finals, including in that event previously this season.

The player's defensive strategy and regular reactions on court had caused commentators to question if his ability to compete at the elite level was finished.

However the athlete has made changes in the past month, attempting to advance forward and compete positively, reinforced by an better service.

The champion recovered from a break down in the opening set against the tricky Moutet, securing four of the final five exchanges to go ahead.

The competitors swapped breaks in the second set before the challenger, attempting for his initial professional victory, took control to create a final set.

He defended 4 initial opportunities in a tight third set before the champion broke to 15 to secure the win.

Suitably, Medvedev clinched the win with a rally at the net, with Moutet incapable to handle a shot after a lengthy match.
