Nineteen of the Russian's 21 titles have been earned on hardcourt
A comeback Medvedev won his initial trophy for 882 days with a win over Corentin Moutet in the competition title decider.
The Russian, a former top-ranked player, has endured a torrid season, achieving just one match at the big events and undergoing a difficult moment at the American major.
His unpredictability on the tennis tour - and difficulties with his serve in especial - resulted in him dropping out of the elite rankings and eventually parting ways with long-term mentor his previous coach.
Currently working with Thomas Johansson and his other coach, he has steadily improved in the last few weeks - climaxing in a hard-fought competitive victory over opponent Moutet.
It is his first championship since the 2023 Rome Masters and first on a hard court since that period of 2023.
Victory also signifies he has won twenty-one championships at twenty-one different events.
"For the first time I am participating in a competition with my children at once, so to get a trophy is really nice," stated ranked player the champion.
"This victory is in tribute of my child her name, because the initial championship I won when my first daughter my daughter was delivered was for her."
The tennis star, the past champion, had been defeated in his past six championship matches, comprising in that event in the past months.
His counter-punching approach and recurring reactions on court had caused observers to wonder if his ability to perform at the top level was finished.
However the athlete has made changes in the last few weeks, making an effort to advance forward and perform aggressively, reinforced by an better serving game.
He fought back from a break down in the initial set against the difficult Frenchman, securing 4 of the final five games to go ahead.
The pair traded breaks in the second set before Moutet, attempting for his initial ATP Tour championship, gained dominance to create a decider.
He defended four initial opportunities in a close deciding set before the Russian broke to that score to close out the victory.
Appropriately, he earned the win with a shot at the front of the court, with the Frenchman incapable to manage a shot after over two and a half hours.
