Nineteen of Daniil Medvedev's 21 victories have been achieved on hard surfaces
A comeback Daniil Medvedev claimed his initial championship for 882 days with success over opponent Moutet in the tournament final.
The athlete, a former world number one, has had a difficult year, winning just a single victory at the major tournaments and suffering a setback at the American major.
The player's varied form on the tennis tour - and difficulties with his service game in especial - caused him falling of the top ten and eventually separating with long-time mentor Cervara.
Currently collaborating with his coach and his other coach, Medvedev has gradually advanced in the recent weeks - peaking in a tightly fought three-set win over opponent Corentin Moutet.
It is his maiden trophy after the Italian tournament and initial on a hard surface after spring of the previous year.
Success also indicates the Russian has won 21 titles at 21 various events.
"For the first time I have attended a event with my two daughters at once, so to get a title is really nice," stated world number 14 Medvedev.
"This victory is in honour of my second daughter Victoria, because the initial championship I won when my older daughter her name was born was for her."
The tennis star, the former major winner, had lost his last six championship matches, comprising in the German tournament earlier this year.
His counter-punching approach and regular outbursts on the playing surface had led observers to question if his capacity to play at the top level was over.
Yet the 29-year-old has implemented adjustments in recent weeks, striving to approach the net and compete assertively, reinforced by an improved serve.
Medvedev came back from a break down in the first set against the challenging Moutet, winning 4 of the last five exchanges to gain the advantage.
The pair swapped service breaks in the following set before the challenger, bidding for his initial professional title, seized the initiative to push for a decider.
Moutet saved four early-game break points in a competitive final set before the Russian broke to 15 to close out the victory.
Fittingly, Medvedev secured the win with a point at the front of the court, with his opponent failing to control a shot after two hours and 38 minutes.
