19 of the Russian's 21 titles have been won on hard courts
A revitalized the Russian player claimed his first title for nearly 30 months with success over Corentin Moutet in the Almaty Open championship match.
The athlete, a former number one, has experienced a torrid season, achieving just a single victory at the Grand Slams and undergoing a setback at the US Open.
His varied form on the professional circuit - and struggles with his serve in especial - resulted in him falling of the elite rankings and eventually separating with former mentor his previous coach.
Now training with Thomas Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, the tennis star has consistently progressed in the past month - peaking in a closely contested 7-5 4-6 6-3 victory over opponent Moutet.
This represents Medvedev's first trophy after the Rome competition and first on a hardcourt since spring of that year.
Victory also means Medvedev has secured twenty-one championships at twenty-one different events.
"For the first time I'm at a event with my both daughters simultaneously, so to secure a championship is really nice," stated ranked player the champion.
"This title is in dedication of my younger daughter Victoria, because the maiden victory I achieved when my child Alisa was delivered was for her."
The tennis star, the former major winner, had lost his past six finals, including in that event earlier this year.
His defensive strategy and frequent emotional displays on the tennis court had caused observers to doubt if his capacity to perform at the highest level was finished.
Yet the athlete has implemented adjustments in the last few weeks, making an effort to come to the net and play aggressively, supported by an improved service.
The champion came back from a break down in the initial set against the difficult opponent, winning four of the final five exchanges to go ahead.
The competitors swapped service breaks in the middle set before Moutet, attempting for his initial professional victory, took control to push for a decider.
Moutet rescued four early break points in a tight third set before Medvedev secured a break to 15 to secure the win.
Appropriately, the winner secured victory with a point at the front of the court, with his opponent unable to control a volley after two hours and 38 minutes.
