Nineteen of the Russian's 21 victories have been earned on hard courts
A revitalized Daniil Medvedev won his first championship for 882 days with success over opponent Moutet in the Almaty Open final.
The Russian, a ex- world number one, has endured a torrid period, winning just one match at the Grand Slams and experiencing a setback at the New York tournament.
The player's varied form on the professional circuit - and struggles with his service game in especial - resulted in him dropping out of the world's top 10 and ultimately splitting with former trainer Cervara.
Presently collaborating with Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, Medvedev has consistently progressed in the past month - culminating in a closely contested 7-5 4-6 6-3 victory over challenger Moutet.
This marks Medvedev's first championship after the Rome competition and maiden on a hard court from March of 2023.
Victory also signifies the Russian has secured 21 titles at twenty-one different competitions.
"For the first time I'm at a tournament with my both daughters together, so to secure a championship is particularly special," said tennis professional Medvedev.
"This title is in tribute of my younger daughter my daughter, because the first title I achieved when my first daughter her name was delivered was for her."
The athlete, the past champion, had been defeated in his last six championship matches, including in the German tournament earlier this year.
His defensive approach and regular emotional displays on the playing surface had prompted commentators to wonder if his skill to play at the elite level was over.
Yet the player has altered his approach in the last few weeks, striving to approach the net and compete aggressively, reinforced by an improved service.
Medvedev came back from a break down in the first set against the difficult Moutet, winning four of the concluding five points to go ahead.
The competitors traded break points in the second set before the challenger, striving for his initial ATP Tour championship, seized the initiative to push for a final set.
He saved four early-game chances in a close final set before the Russian secured a break to that score to serve for the match.
Appropriately, Medvedev secured victory with a shot at the net, with the Frenchman unable to control a shot after two hours and 38 minutes.
