Emma Raducanu is back in Grand Slam action this morning as she begins her Australian Open campaign.
The Briton is seeded at a major tournament for the first time in over three years but has been handed a tricky route to the final.
Raducanu, the 28th seed in Melbourne, could face world No1 Aryna Sabalenka in the third round should she progress that far.
Raducanu opens her account Down Under against world No195 Mananchaya Sawangkaew.
Should she get past the Thai player, she would face either Anastasia Potapova or Suzan Lamens in the next round.
What time is Raducanu playing at Australian Open?
Raducanu is scheduled last on Margaret Court Arena on day one of the tournament.
She will be on court following the conclusion of the match between Jenson Brooksby and Alexander Bublik. She is estimated to take to the court at around 10am GMT.
