1 The United States traveled to Maui, Hawaii for its Fed Cup tie against Germany, and embraced the elements wholeheartedly.2 CoCo Vandeweghe emerged as the weekend's hero, winning two singles rubbers, including the clinching match for a 3-0 sweep.3 Meanwhile, in Ecuador, Victor Estrella Burgos juggled a statue head trophy once more after his third Quito title win.4 In Sofia, Grigor Dimitrov kissed his country's ground after topping David Goffin in the final.5 While the Bulgarians cheered, all Goffin could do was lament his fifth final loss in a row.6 In Rotterdam, Robin Haase pulled off some theatrics (eventually winning this point and match over Florian Mayer).
