Svetlana Kuznetsova defeated Spain's Anabel Medina Garrigues in the first singles match, helping Russia win the Fed Cup.

Ranked seventh in the world, Kuznetsova helped the Russians clinch their fourth title in five years with a hard-fought 5-7 6-3 6-4 victory in 2 hours, 39 minutes.

Kuznetsova and ninth-ranked Vera Zvonareva had posted victories on Saturday to give Russia a commanding 2-0 lead.

In the doubles match, Russia completed the 4-0 sweep behind Ekaterina Makarova and Elena Vesnina, who posted a 6-2 6-1 triumph over the duo of Nuria Llagostera and Vives/Carla Suarez Navarro.

Spain, who have now lost five of their six meetings against Russia, have not won a Fed Cup title since 1998.
