Nineteen of the Russian's twenty-one championships have been won on hard courts
A resurgent the Russian player claimed his initial trophy for over two years with success over Corentin Moutet in the tournament final.
Medvedev, a former top-ranked player, has experienced a difficult year, managing just one win at the Grand Slams and undergoing a setback at the American major.
His varied form on the ATP Tour - and issues with his serving in specific - caused him dropping out of the elite rankings and eventually separating with long-term coach his previous coach.
Currently collaborating with Johansson and his other coach, Medvedev has gradually advanced in the recent weeks - peaking in a closely contested three-set triumph over opponent Moutet.
It is the player's initial trophy since the Italian tournament and maiden on a hard surface after spring of that year.
The win also signifies the Russian has achieved 21 titles at twenty-one distinct competitions.
"This marks the first occasion I have attended a event with my two daughters simultaneously, so to get a trophy is really nice," commented world number 14 Medvedev.
"This victory is in dedication of my second daughter Victoria, because the initial championship I won when my older daughter her name was born was for her."
The athlete, the past champion, had failed in his last six title deciders, featuring in that event previously this season.
His retrieving approach and frequent reactions on the playing surface had led commentators to doubt if his ability to play at the top level was finished.
But the 29-year-old has made changes in the past month, striving to approach the net and compete assertively, backed up by an enhanced serve.
The champion came back from a deficit in the first set against the tricky Frenchman, securing four of the last five games to take the lead.
The pair traded service breaks in the following set before the challenger, attempting for his maiden tour victory, seized the initiative to push for a third set.
He rescued 4 early break points in a close third set before the champion secured a break to that score to serve for the match.
Fittingly, Medvedev secured the win with a shot at the front of the court, with his opponent incapable to manage a shot after over two and a half hours.
