With the Davis Cup on the line, Radek Stepanek delivered
again.
Anthony-Fasano-Elite-Jersey/">Anthony Fasano Jersey
. Stepanek gave the Czech Republic its second straight
Davis Cup title Sunday, sweeping past Dusan Lajovic in
straight sets in the fifth and decisive match to secure a
3-2 win over Serbia in the final. That made Stepanek the
first player in the history of the tournament to decide
two consecutive finals in the fifth match, having done
the same against Spains Nicolas Almagro last year. "This
is an amazing moment," said Stepanek, who beat the 117th-
ranked Lajovic 6-3, 6-1, 6-1 after Novak Djokovic had
levelled the series for Serbia at 2-2 earlier Sunday. The
Czech veteran converted his first match point with a
smash to send about a thousand visiting Czech fans at
Belgrade Arena into wild celebrations as they blew
trumpets and beat their drums. Stepanek spread his hands
on the court as Tomas Berdych and other Czech teammates
jumped on him. "Its difficult to find right words for
emotions I am going through now," Stepanek said. "It was
a completely different experience than last year. I was
very focused, concentrated, I knew what to do on court.
We made history for our country today." Last years
victory for the first for the Czechs as an independent
nation. Serbia won its only crown in 2010, beating France
in Belgrade. Lajovic, who has a 5-12 record on the ATP
tour and had never played in the Davis Cup before this
weekend, replaced Janko Tipsarevic, who missed the final
with a heel injury. He also lost his first singles
against Berdych on Friday -- his first career best-of-
five-sets match -- and found himself thrust into by far
the biggest match of his life against Stepanek. The 23-
year-old Serb started well, however, breaking Stepanek in
the opening game of the match. But the 34-year-old Czech
responded swiftly with two consecutive breaks to take a
5-2 lead. Stepanek controlled the match from then on, and
broke Lajovic for 3-1 in the final set, and then added
another before serving out the match. "I was fighting to
my last breath, but obviously this wasnt enough," Lajovic
said. "Of course, I am very disappointed. Right now I
need to cool off my head and think what to do next."
Serbia captain Bogdan Obradovic said his teams chances of
winning the title were crippled by Tipsarevics injury and
a 12-month doping ban against Viktor Troicki, who helped
Serbia win its only title. "We couldnt find the real
replacement for the two, it was like playing tennis
without one leg," Bogdanovic said. "Dusan is the young
gun in our team. Hopefully he is going to use the energy
from the team and some experiences from those two matches
for his career, even if it wasnt a success." The Czechs
got the crucial point in Saturdays doubles to go up 2-1.
The second-ranked Djokovic then kept alive Serbias hopes
by beating Berdych 6-4, 7-6 (5), 6-2 earlier Sunday to
improve his career record against the Czech to 15-2. "We
both entered this match with a lot of tension," Djokovic
said. "I managed to break his resistance in the second
set." Berdych was leading 5-4 in the second-set
tiebreaker when he sent wide an easy backhand volley at
the net. Then he lost a point on his serve, and Djokovic
took his first chance to serve out the set. Djokovic, who
improved his winning streak to 24 matches since losing
the U.S. Open final against Rafael Nadal in September,
converted his first match point with an ace, bringing
cheers from the 17,000-strong boisterous Serbian crowd at
the arena. "Its really hard to find right and correct
words to explain at what level hes playing and how strong
Novak is," Berdych said. "He is now the best player when
hes playing indoors, and thats what he proved today."

and a triple flip jump that put her at the top of a
tightly contested race with 64.73 points, just ahead of
Li Zijun of China on 62.

game got off to a less-than-ideal start for the Jets as
Oliver Ekman-Larsson found a wide open net from the slot
and opened the scoring for the Coyotes a lead in the
first period, but Olli Jokinen answered back just over
half a minute later.

Ndamukong-Suh-Elite-Jersey/ .A. Happ is coming off
his first start of the year, a win at Philadelphia
Monday. The former Phillie allowed three hits in five
scoreless frames of a 3-0 triumph.OTTAWA - Eugene Melnyk
is already predicting a return to the playoffs for the
Ottawa Senators this season. The NHL teams owner said he
sees no reason why this years lineup wouldnt have the
capability to be one of the more competitive teams in the
Eastern Conference. "I think you can pretty well predict
what were going to have on the ice," Melnyk said Tuesday.
"If everybody just plays to their potential I think its a
great team and is going to be very competitive and will
be a playoff team, but they just need to play to the
level that we know that they can play." The Senators
missed the playoffs last season and finished 11th in the
Eastern Conference, but Melnyk is confident the Senators
will finish in the top eight this year. "I think we have
the potential to be in the playoffs and be competitive
throughout the whole year," he said. "Once the playoffs
start anything can happen. Thats the first step, lets get
into the playoffs and let it run from there." There will
be some significant changes to the Senators this year
after the trade of Jason Spezza and the addition of David
Legwand, Alex Chiasson and prospects Nicholas Paul and
Alexander Guptill. Curtis Lazar, 19, will also be pushing
to make the roster. "I think were going to be very, very
competitive," said Melnyk. "Last year was not the kind of
year we want to have this coming season. Eveeryone knows
their roles and Im just hoping we stay away from injuries
and were all set to go.

Melnyk feels the Senators have a better schedule this
season, adding he senses a renewed energy from players
who are eager to put last season behind them. Ottawa
dealt Spezza to the Dallas Stars last month. He was
drafted by the Senators with the second overall pick in
2001 and had spent his career in the nations capital. The
team has yet to name a new captain. Melnyk said he
understood and accepted Spezzas request to be traded. "I
spoke to him as far back as five years ago and he was
already starting to talk about potentially moving and
this time around he was looking for a change and I
totally understand what he wanted to do," he said. Melnyk
was in town to announce that the Senators and the
Senators Foundation have surpassed the $100-million mark
in community contributions and initiatives. "Were at the
top, weve won the Stanley Cup in that area," he said of
the teams charitable efforts. "I know what everybody else
does, we talk about it, and they come here to see what
weve done to get a sense of it. Theyre just in awe of the
organization and how well we are organized. Its a
machine." Melnyk capped off the afternoon with another
charitable contribution as he and Senators defenceman
Erik Karlsson took part in the Ice Bucket Challenge to
raise awareness for ALS.
