Navratilova's return & an Olympic legacy: Remembering Prague's pivotal 1986 Fed Cup
Published 3 weeks, 2 days ago
Description
Stvanice, an island on the river in Prague, has always been a sporting paradise. For many years, it was home to an ice hockey stadium that hosted the World Championship, where the national team won its first gold in 1947, and right next to it, the stands of an iconic tennis arena were built. It was this arena, now the host of the upcoming Livesport Prague Open, that in July of 1986 hosted one of the most memorable tournaments of all time.
