19 of Medvedev's twenty-one championships have been achieved on hard surfaces
A resurgent Medvedev won his initial championship for 882 days with victory over Corentin Moutet in the tournament final.
The Russian, a ex- number one, has endured a challenging year, achieving just one win at the major tournaments and undergoing a setback at the American major.
The player's varied form on the tennis tour - and issues with his serving in particular - led to him falling of the world's top 10 and eventually separating with long-term mentor his previous coach.
Presently collaborating with Thomas Johansson and Goetzke, Medvedev has consistently improved in the recent weeks - peaking in a hard-fought 7-5 4-6 6-3 win over Frenchman Moutet.
It is the player's maiden trophy since the 2023 Rome Masters and maiden on a hard surface since March of 2023.
Victory also indicates Medvedev has secured 21 titles at 21 various tournaments.
"This marks the first occasion I am participating in a competition with my both daughters simultaneously, so to get a title is especially meaningful," stated tennis professional the champion.
"This championship is in dedication of my child her name, because the initial championship I achieved when my child her name was born was for her."
The athlete, the former major winner, had lost his previous six finals, including in that event in the past months.
His counter-punching play style and regular emotional displays on the tennis court had led observers to wonder if his capacity to compete at the elite level was concluded.
But the player has made changes in the past month, striving to come to the net and play aggressively, supported by an better service.
He fought back from a deficit in the initial set against the tricky Moutet, winning 4 of the final five exchanges to take the lead.
The pair exchanged service breaks in the middle set before the challenger, attempting for his first ATP Tour title, seized the initiative to push for a final set.
The opponent rescued 4 early-game opportunities in a tight third set before the Russian won the break to fifteen to secure the win.
Appropriately, he secured the win with a point at the front of the court, with Moutet failing to manage a volley after two hours and 38 minutes.
