Which tennis player won a third Fed Cup title with the Czech Republic team in 2014?

Petra Kvitová won a third Fed Cup title with the Czech Republic team in 2014. She was the decisive star of the final against Germany, winning both of her singles matches and clinching the tie.

The final was played at Prague’s O2 Arena on November 8–9, 2014. Kvitová first defeated Andrea Petkovic in straight sets. With the Czech Republic leading, she then faced Angelique Kerber in the third rubber. Kvitová won the tense match 7–6(5), 4–6, 6–4, giving her country an unassailable 3–0 lead; the Czech Republic ultimately won the final 3–1 after the doubles match.

The victory was the Czech team’s third Fed Cup championship in four years, following titles in 2011 and 2012. Kvitová had also played a major role in the 2011 triumph, the Czech Republic’s first Fed Cup title as an independent nation after the split of Czechoslovakia.

A common mix-up is counting only Kvitová’s personal singles wins or calling 2014 her third individual title. The “third” refers to the Czech Republic team’s championship total in that four-year span.
