Together with Tomas Berdych, Stepanek led the Czech Republic to Davis Cup titles in 2012 and 2013, becoming the first player to win two decisive fifth rubbers in consecutive Davis Cup finals.

He said he wanted to continue his tennis career as long as possible, but his body could not afford any more.
