Alexa Glatch, Liezel Huber and Bethanie Mattek-Sands of the United States celebrate after defeating the Czech Republic's Iveta Benesova and Kveta Peschke during their Fed Cup semifinal tennis match in Brno April 26, 2009.

They fought off a match point in the doubles. Which wouldn't have even mattered if Alexa Glatch didn't win both of her singles rubbers. I was impressed. She claims clay is her favorite surface -- yes, this is an American player -- but with her big serve and slow skidding slices off both wings, she could find success on grass. Nice to see Mattek-Sands redeem her terrible singles play in the last half of the doubles. And Liezel Huber is scary.

Savannah has more.
