Emma Raducanu has been drawn against teenage wildcard Mimi Xu in an eye-catching all-British first-round match at Wimbledon.

British number one Raducanu, ranked 38th in the world, fell just short of a seeding for the championships and has been handed a difficult-looking draw.

World number four Jack Draper, who starts against Argentina’s 38th-ranked Sebastian Baez, also faces a daunting path to the latter stages.

Seven-time champion Novak Djokovic, bidding for a standalone record 25th major singles title, is a potential quarter-final opponent for Draper.

British qualifier Oliver Tarvet, who cannot claim prize money as he is still a college player in the United States, could meet defending champion Carlos Alcaraz in the second round.

Raducanu and Draper lead a total of 23 British players in the singles draws – the highest amount since 1984.
