Nineteen of the Russian's 21 victories have been achieved on hard courts
A comeback Daniil Medvedev won his first championship for 882 days with a win over Corentin Moutet in the Almaty Open championship match.
The athlete, a former top-ranked player, has had a difficult year, achieving just one match at the Grand Slams and suffering a setback at the New York tournament.
The player's unpredictability on the professional circuit - and issues with his serving in specific - led to him exiting of the top ten and ultimately parting ways with former trainer Gilles Cervara.
Presently working with Johansson and Goetzke, he has gradually improved in the past month - climaxing in a hard-fought three-set triumph over Frenchman Moutet.
This represents Medvedev's maiden title after the 2023 Rome Masters and first on a hard surface since March of that year.
Success also signifies the Russian has achieved twenty-one victories at twenty-one distinct competitions.
"For the first time I'm at a tournament with my both daughters at once, so to win a title is particularly special," commented ranked player Daniil Medvedev.
"This championship is in tribute of my second daughter Victoria, because the maiden victory I won when my older daughter my daughter was born was for her."
The athlete, the 2021 US Open champion, had lost his last six championship matches, comprising in that event previously this season.
His defensive play style and recurring emotional displays on the playing surface had led some to doubt if his ability to play at the elite level was over.
Yet the 29-year-old has altered his approach in the past month, striving to advance forward and play positively, supported by an better serve.
The champion fought back from a deficit in the initial set against the challenging Moutet, securing four of the concluding five exchanges to gain the advantage.
Both players exchanged breaks in the middle set before the Frenchman, striving for his maiden tour victory, gained dominance to create a decider.
Moutet rescued 4 early-game chances in a close final set before the champion won the break to 15 to close out the victory.
Fittingly, Medvedev clinched the win with a shot at the front of the court, with Moutet incapable to handle a volley after two hours and 38 minutes.
