Rising British star Jack Draper will play top seed Rafael Nadal in the Australian Open first round, with Andy Murray also handed a difficult draw.
Murray faces 13th seed Matteo Berrettini, while Novak Djokovic makes his Melbourne return against Spain’s Roberto Carballes Baena.
Emma Raducanu, who has been struggling with an ankle injury, has been drawn against Germany’s Tamara Korpatsch.
Raducanu, 20, could face seventh seed Coco Gauff in the second round.
After learning of his first-round meeting with 2022 winner Nadal, Draper said it would be “amazing to play on court with him”.
“He’s a great champion,” the 21-year-old added. “Whatever happens, it will be a special occasion for me.
“I’m still very young in my career so it’s great to have these sort of experiences and exposure to playing someone like Rafa on a big court like that.
“But I want to play really well and I want to compete hard and do the best I can.”
The Australian Open, which is the first Grand Slam tournament of the new season, takes place at Melbourne Park between 16 and 29 January. (BBC)
