19 of the Russian's 21 championships have been achieved on hard surfaces
A revitalized Daniil Medvedev claimed his initial championship for over two years with a win over Frenchman Moutet in the Almaty Open title decider.
The athlete, a ex- number one, has experienced a difficult season, winning just one win at the major tournaments and experiencing a setback at the American major.
His varied form on the ATP Tour - and struggles with his service game in particular - resulted in him falling of the world's top 10 and finally separating with long-term mentor Gilles Cervara.
Currently collaborating with Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, Medvedev has gradually advanced in the last few weeks - peaking in a tightly fought three-set win over opponent Moutet.
It is Medvedev's first championship following the Rome competition and first on a hard court from spring of that year.
Success also means he has achieved 21 victories at twenty-one distinct tournaments.
"This marks the first occasion I am participating in a event with my children simultaneously, so to get a title is especially meaningful," commented world number 14 Daniil Medvedev.
"This victory is in dedication of my child my daughter, because the maiden victory I got when my older daughter her name was born was for her."
The athlete, the former major winner, had lost his past six title deciders, featuring in the German tournament in the past months.
Medvedev's retrieving approach and recurring outbursts on court had led some to wonder if his skill to compete at the elite level was finished.
Yet the athlete has implemented adjustments in the last few weeks, making an effort to advance forward and perform assertively, supported by an better serve.
He recovered from a disadvantage in the first set against the difficult Frenchman, winning four of the concluding five exchanges to gain the advantage.
The pair exchanged service breaks in the following set before the challenger, attempting for his initial ATP Tour victory, seized the initiative to force a final set.
He rescued four early opportunities in a competitive third set before the Russian broke to fifteen to serve for the match.
Appropriately, the winner clinched the title with a rally at the net, with the Frenchman incapable to control a shot after two hours and 38 minutes.
