19 of Medvedev's twenty-one victories have been earned on hard courts
A resurgent the Russian player secured his first championship for over two years with a win over Corentin Moutet in the Almaty Open final.
Medvedev, a ex- number one, has endured a challenging year, winning just one win at the major tournaments and experiencing a setback at the US Open.
His varied form on the professional circuit - and difficulties with his serve in especial - caused him exiting of the world's top 10 and finally separating with former mentor Gilles Cervara.
Currently collaborating with Thomas Johansson and his other coach, Medvedev has steadily improved in the last few weeks - culminating in a closely contested three-set victory over Frenchman Moutet.
It is Medvedev's initial trophy following the Italian tournament and initial on a hardcourt since spring of 2023.
The win also means the Russian has secured twenty-one titles at 21 different events.
"It's the first time I have attended a tournament with my two daughters simultaneously, so to secure a championship is particularly special," stated tennis professional the champion.
"This championship is in honour of my child my daughter, because the initial championship I got when my first daughter her name was delivered was for her."
The tennis star, the 2021 US Open champion, had lost his previous six title deciders, comprising in that event in the past months.
His defensive play style and frequent reactions on the tennis court had caused commentators to wonder if his ability to play at the elite level was finished.
Yet the player has made changes in the past month, making an effort to advance forward and perform assertively, reinforced by an enhanced service.
The champion came back from a disadvantage in the opening set against the challenging Frenchman, winning 4 of the concluding five points to take the lead.
The competitors swapped service breaks in the second set before the challenger, bidding for his initial tour title, gained dominance to create a final set.
The opponent defended 4 initial opportunities in a close final set before the Russian broke to fifteen to serve for the match.
Fittingly, the winner clinched the win with a shot at the net area, with Moutet incapable to control a shot after two hours and 38 minutes.
