19 of Daniil Medvedev's twenty-one victories have been achieved on hardcourt
A revitalized Medvedev secured his initial trophy for over two years with victory over Corentin Moutet in the tournament title decider.
Medvedev, a ex- world number one, has had a difficult season, winning just one win at the Grand Slams and suffering a meltdown at the American major.
His unpredictability on the tennis tour - and struggles with his service game in especial - caused him dropping out of the world's top 10 and eventually splitting with long-term coach Cervara.
Presently collaborating with his coach and Goetzke, the tennis star has gradually advanced in the past month - peaking in a tightly fought 7-5 4-6 6-3 victory over challenger Moutet.
This represents his initial title following the Rome competition and first on a hard surface from March of 2023.
Success also signifies he has secured 21 championships at 21 different tournaments.
"It's the first time I'm at a competition with my both daughters simultaneously, so to win a title is really nice," said world number 14 Medvedev.
"This victory is in honour of my child her name, because the first title I got when my older daughter Alisa was born was for her."
The tennis star, the past champion, had failed in his last six championship matches, including in Halle in the past months.
The player's counter-punching play style and frequent emotional displays on the playing surface had led observers to question if his skill to perform at the highest level was concluded.
Yet the 29-year-old has implemented adjustments in recent weeks, making an effort to come to the net and perform aggressively, backed up by an better service.
The champion came back from a disadvantage in the initial set against the difficult Moutet, securing four of the final five exchanges to go ahead.
The competitors swapped break points in the following set before the Frenchman, striving for his maiden ATP Tour championship, gained dominance to force a third set.
The opponent rescued 4 early chances in a tight deciding set before the Russian broke to fifteen to secure the win.
Appropriately, Medvedev clinched the title with a shot at the net, with his opponent incapable to handle a return after two hours and 38 minutes.
