19 of the Russian's 21 titles have been achieved on hardcourt
A comeback Daniil Medvedev secured his first championship for nearly 30 months with victory over Corentin Moutet in the competition final.
The athlete, a ex- top-ranked player, has experienced a challenging season, winning just a single victory at the major tournaments and suffering a setback at the New York tournament.
The player's varied form on the tennis tour - and difficulties with his serving in specific - led to him dropping out of the world's top 10 and eventually parting ways with long-term trainer his previous coach.
Currently collaborating with Johansson and his other coach, he has steadily improved in the recent weeks - culminating in a closely contested competitive victory over opponent Corentin Moutet.
It is the player's first championship since the Italian tournament and initial on a hardcourt from that period of 2023.
Success also indicates he has secured 21 championships at 21 different events.
"For the first time I'm at a event with my children simultaneously, so to secure a trophy is especially meaningful," stated ranked player the champion.
"This title is in honour of my child Victoria, because the maiden victory I got when my child Alisa was delivered was for her."
Medvedev, the 2021 US Open champion, had failed in his past six championship matches, comprising in that event in the past months.
His retrieving strategy and regular emotional displays on the tennis court had caused commentators to wonder if his ability to play at the highest level was concluded.
But the 29-year-old has implemented adjustments in the past month, striving to come to the net and play assertively, reinforced by an better serving game.
The champion came back from a disadvantage in the initial set against the tricky opponent, taking four of the last five exchanges to gain the advantage.
Both players exchanged breaks in the second set before Moutet, bidding for his initial tour championship, took control to push for a final set.
He defended four early break points in a tight third set before the champion secured a break to fifteen to secure the win.
Appropriately, Medvedev secured the win with a point at the net area, with the Frenchman failing to control a return after two hours and 38 minutes.
