British number one Andy Murray has been drawn against a qualifier in the first round of the Australian Open.
The sixth seed faces a tough path to the final, with a potential fourth-round clash with Grigor Dimitrov and a possible quarter-final against Roger Federer on the cards.
Murray's fellow Briton James Ward will play Fernando Verdasco of Spain, while four-time champion Novak Djokovic is also up against a qualifier.
Federer will take on Lu Yen-hsun in the first round, and Rafael Nadal will lock horns with Mikhail Youzhny.
The Australian Open will take place between January 19 and February 1.
