The Madens are currently the #18 team in the ITA Collegiate National Rankings and won a team high 10 doubles matches this fall for the Tigers.

Yannick and Dominique will square off in singles action tomorrow in the first round of the Main Draw.  Yannick Maden will compete against former college All-American and #361 ATP World Ranked Moritz Baumann of Germany, while Dominique will compete against #3 seed and #305 ATP World Ranked Nils Langer of Germany.
