Kvitová cried. The Russians didn't understand what was happening, then they took the cup from the Czechs.

Fifteen years ago, Czech women’s tennis began a remarkable era by winning the Fed Cup in Moscow, marking the start of a successful period with five additional titles. Petra Kvitová played a crucial role, winning both her singles matches and contributing to the final victory alongside her teammates. The event was bittersweet for the Czech team, as they faced challenges with the trophy's return due to administrative issues with Russian authorities. This victory was a significant moment in Czech sports history, leading to a decade of success in women’s tennis, culminating in a recent win at the Billie Jean King Cup.
