19 of Daniil Medvedev's twenty-one titles have been achieved on hardcourt
A revitalized the Russian player claimed his first championship for over two years with a win over Frenchman Moutet in the Almaty Open title decider.
The athlete, a former number one, has experienced a challenging season, managing just one win at the Grand Slams and experiencing a difficult moment at the US Open.
The player's unpredictability on the tennis tour - and difficulties with his serve in especial - caused him dropping out of the elite rankings and finally separating with long-time coach Gilles Cervara.
Presently working with Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, he has steadily improved in the recent weeks - climaxing in a hard-fought competitive triumph over opponent Moutet.

"This championship is in honour of my child her name, because the initial championship I got when my older daughter her name was delivered was for her."
The athlete, the 2021 US Open champion, had failed in his previous six championship matches, comprising in the German tournament in the past months.
His defensive strategy and frequent emotional displays on the tennis court had caused some to question if his skill to play at the top level was concluded.
Yet the athlete has implemented adjustments in recent weeks, making an effort to advance forward and play positively, backed up by an better serve.
The champion came back from a deficit in the initial set against the tricky Moutet, securing four of the concluding five games to take the lead.
The competitors traded break points in the second set before Moutet, attempting for his maiden professional title, gained dominance to create a third set.
The opponent defended four early-game opportunities in a close final set before the champion secured a break to fifteen to secure the win.
Suitably, Medvedev clinched victory with a shot at the net, with his opponent incapable to handle a return after over two and a half hours.
