Nineteen of the Russian's twenty-one victories have been achieved on hard surfaces
A comeback Medvedev secured his first trophy for nearly 30 months with success over Corentin Moutet in the competition final.
The Russian, a former number one, has experienced a challenging period, managing just a single victory at the Grand Slams and experiencing a meltdown at the New York tournament.
The player's varied form on the professional circuit - and issues with his serve in particular - led to him dropping out of the elite rankings and eventually separating with long-term coach Gilles Cervara.
Now training with Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, he has steadily progressed in the past month - peaking in a closely contested 7-5 4-6 6-3 triumph over Frenchman Moutet.
It is Medvedev's first title since the Italian tournament and maiden on a hardcourt from that period of that year.
The win also indicates he has secured twenty-one titles at twenty-one distinct tournaments.
"For the first time I have attended a tournament with my two daughters together, so to get a championship is especially meaningful," commented ranked player Daniil Medvedev.
"This championship is in tribute of my second daughter her name, because the maiden victory I won when my child her name was born was for her."
The athlete, the former major winner, had lost his last six finals, including in the German tournament in the past months.
His defensive approach and regular outbursts on the playing surface had led observers to question if his capacity to play at the elite level was over.
Yet the 29-year-old has altered his approach in the last few weeks, making an effort to approach the net and perform aggressively, backed up by an improved serve.
The champion came back from a deficit in the opening set against the tricky opponent, taking four of the last five points to gain the advantage.
The competitors exchanged break points in the middle set before the challenger, striving for his initial ATP Tour championship, gained dominance to create a decider.
He defended 4 early chances in a close deciding set before the champion secured a break to fifteen to serve for the match.
Appropriately, Medvedev secured the win with a point at the net, with the Frenchman unable to handle a return after over two and a half hours.
