Radek Stepanek amazed by Davis Cup glory

Radek Stepanek has revealed that he had been dreaming of Davis Cup success 'his whole life' following the Czech Republic's victory over Spain in Prague.

The 33-year-old shocked world number 11 Nicolas Almagro in four sets on Sunday to give his country a dramatic 3-2 win over the defending champions.

"I was dreaming about it my whole life," said Stepanek. "It's amazing. I cannot describe what I'm feeling right now."

The Czech's triumph was their first in the competition since 1980.
