This weekend the Czechs will play in front of the biggest Fed Cup crowd they've ever experienced. While getting their hands on the cup will not be a new feeling for the girls, lifting it at home is something they all want to experience.

As soon as the tickets for the final went on sale, Petra Kvitova's father Jiri snapped up 100 for his nearest and dearest and it only needed six hours for the 13,800 capacity arena to completely sell out. With a journey to Slovak Republic, Belgium and Russia last year in their quest for the title, a title at home this weekend will, according to Lucie Safarova, simply be "amazing".

Fed Cup was launched in 1963 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the International Tennis Federation (ITF). It's now the world's largest annual international team competition in women's sport, with 90 nations entering in 2012.
