    After beating the United States at home and on the road in consecutive Fed Cup finals, the Italians really don't care if the Williams sisters were absent both times.

    Flavia Pennetta routed 18-year-old CoCo Vandeweghe 6-1, 6-2 on Sunday to give Italy its second straight Fed Cup final victory over the United States. Pennetta's victory in the fourth singles match gave the Italians a 3-1 decision in the best-of-five finale.

    Pennetta won after Melanie Oudin stunned French Open champion Francesca Schiavone 6-3, 6-1 to keep the United States alive.
