British tennis star Emma Raducanu will face Russia's Ekaterina Alexandrova in the opening round of the Australian Open, although her preparations have been impacted by a minor back injury.
The former US Open champion has been knocked out in the second round in each of the past three years. However, should she better that result this year and make the third round she could be in line to face No. 2 seed Iga Swiatek.
British women's No. 1 Katie Boulter, who is seeded for the first time at No. 22, will face Canada's Rebecca Marino. She will be hoping to make the deepest run of her career at the Grand Slam event in Melbourne where she has previously only reached the second round.
In the men's draw, 15th-seed Jack Draper will hope to recover from a hip injury in time to take on Argentina's Mariano Navone.
Draper was drawn in the same side of the draw as Spain's Carlos Alcaraz, with the pair on course to meet each other in the fourth round.
Meanwhile, British prospect Jacob Fearnley was drawn to take on Nick Kyrgios in the Australian's much-anticipated return to tennis.
It is the latest Grand Slam draw in which Fearnley has been tasked with facing one of the sport's biggest stars having been ousted from last summer's Wimbledon in the first round at the hands of Novak Djokovic.
