Petra Kvitova: Czech Mates the Madrid Open
Petra Kvitova (#18) got all our attention last year when she barged into the semi's of Wimbledon. In her match against Serena Williams, you could really see that she had the game to make it to the top. And today, she takes one step further to show everyone in the WTA Tour that she's a force to deal with in the next few years. With such a topnotch draw, Petra wins her third title this year in Madrid. She won Paris and Brisbane earlier this year. She won over three Top 10 players in this tournament, to get the title. This was her path to the championship -
