World No. 1 pairing Marcelo Melo and Lukasz Kubot will headline the doubles entry list of this year’s BMW Open by FWU. The Brazilian-Polish combination clinched the title in Wimbledon last year and lifted the trophies at the ATP Masters 1000 events in Miami and Paris-Bercy.

Germany’s Davis Cup doubles team Tim Pütz and Jan-Lennard Struff will also come to Munich.

They know each other for a long time and harmonize very well on the court,” Kühnen commented.
