Emma Raducanu will face Russian 22nd seed Ekaterina Alexandrova while Andy Murray has been drawn against Czech Tomas Machac in the first round at Wimbledon.
Former US Open champion Raducanu missed last year’s tournament following surgery on both wrists and one ankle and will have high hopes after showing good form in the build-up.
Murray faces a first-round tie against Machac, should the 2013 and 2016 champion recover in time to feature in the men’s singles after surgery.
In the women’s draw, British No 1 Katie Boulter, seeded at the All England Club for the first time, opens her campaign against former semi-finalist Tatjana Maria and could play compatriot Harriet Dart in the second round.
Top seed Iga Swiatek faces former Australian Open champion Sofia Kenin in a repeat of the 2020 French Open final, and is in the same half of the draw as defending champion Marketa Vondrousova and former winner Elena Rybakina, with Aryna Sabalenka and Coco Gauff in the bottom half.
Harriet Dart plays China’s Zhuoxuan Bai, Francesca Jones will take on Croatian Petra Martic and Lily Miyazaki will face Germany’s Tamara Korpatsch.
British No 1 and 28th seed Jack Draper faces Sweden’s Elias Ymer in the first round of the men’s single, and could face compatriot Cameron Norrie in a second-round tie if he navigates his opener against Argentina’s Facuna Diaz Acosta.
Reigning champion Carlos Alcaraz begins his defence against Estonia’s Mark Lajal, top seed Jannik Sinner faces German Yannick Hanfmann, while seven-time champion Novak Djokovic, who appears to have recovered sufficiently from knee surgery, is the second seed and opens against Czech qualifier Vit Kopriva.
There was embarrassment for tournament referee Denise Parnell, in her first year in the job, during the draw when a mix-up occurred during the placing of the seeds.
After the wrong name was put on the board, confusion occurred over the remaining players, leaving one line blank before the error was corrected.
