Nineteen of Medvedev's 21 championships have been achieved on hard surfaces

A comeback the Russian player secured his maiden trophy for 882 days with success over Corentin Moutet in the Almaty Open championship match.

The athlete, a ex- world number one, has experienced a difficult period, managing just one win at the big events and suffering a setback at the New York tournament.

The player's inconsistency on the tennis tour - and issues with his service game in especial - led to him falling of the elite rankings and finally splitting with long-term mentor his previous coach.

Currently training with Johansson and his other coach, Medvedev has consistently progressed in the recent weeks - climaxing in a hard-fought three-set victory over challenger Corentin Moutet.

This represents the player's maiden championship after the Italian tournament and first on a hard court after that period of 2023.

Victory also signifies Medvedev has secured 21 championships at twenty-one distinct events.

"It's the first time I am participating in a competition with my two daughters simultaneously, so to secure a title is particularly special," commented world number 14 Medvedev.

"This championship is in tribute of my child her name, because the maiden victory I achieved when my first daughter my daughter was born was for her."

Medvedev, the former major winner, had lost his past six finals, including in the German tournament previously this season.

His retrieving play style and recurring reactions on the tennis court had prompted some to doubt if his capacity to compete at the highest level was finished.

However the 29-year-old has implemented adjustments in the past month, striving to come to the net and compete aggressively, backed up by an enhanced serve.

The champion fought back from a deficit in the opening set against the challenging Frenchman, taking 4 of the concluding five points to take the lead.

The competitors traded service breaks in the second set before the challenger, attempting for his first professional victory, took control to push for a decider.

Moutet rescued four early-game break points in a tight final set before Medvedev secured a break to fifteen to secure the win.

Appropriately, he earned victory with a shot at the net, with Moutet incapable to control a shot after two hours and 38 minutes.
