19 of the Russian's twenty-one titles have been won on hard surfaces
A resurgent Daniil Medvedev won his first title for nearly 30 months with victory over Corentin Moutet in the tournament final.
The athlete, a former world number one, has endured a torrid year, managing just a single victory at the Grand Slams and undergoing a meltdown at the New York tournament.
The player's varied form on the ATP Tour - and difficulties with his serving in especial - resulted in him exiting of the world's top 10 and finally parting ways with long-term coach his previous coach.
Currently working with Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, Medvedev has consistently progressed in the recent weeks - culminating in a tightly fought three-set victory over Frenchman Moutet.
It is the player's first trophy after the Italian tournament and initial on a hardcourt after spring of that year.
Victory also indicates he has secured 21 championships at 21 different tournaments.
"This marks the first occasion I'm at a tournament with my both daughters together, so to win a title is really nice," said world number 14 Daniil Medvedev.
"This championship is in honour of my younger daughter her name, because the first title I got when my older daughter Alisa was born was for her."
The athlete, the former major winner, had been defeated in his past six title deciders, including in Halle previously this season.
His retrieving play style and frequent reactions on the playing surface had led observers to question if his capacity to perform at the highest level was over.
However the 29-year-old has altered his approach in recent weeks, attempting to approach the net and compete assertively, supported by an better service.
Medvedev recovered from a deficit in the opening set against the tricky opponent, winning 4 of the last five exchanges to go ahead.
Both players swapped break points in the following set before Moutet, bidding for his maiden tour championship, seized the initiative to force a final set.
He rescued four early chances in a tight third set before the Russian broke to fifteen to close out the victory.
Fittingly, the winner earned the title with a shot at the front of the court, with the Frenchman incapable to control a volley after a lengthy match.
