Andy Murray heads into the Australian Open at the twilight of his career with little pressure or expectation on his shoulders as an unseeded player.
But the evergreen competitive spirit running through his veins that has seen him endear himself to the British public over the years will of course be on show when he kicks off his campaign Down Under once again.
The 35-year-old, who crashed out in the second round against Taro Daniel last year, has an even trickier task in the opener this time around: last year’s semi-finalist and the 2021 runner-up at Wimbledon, Matteo Berrettini.
"Obviously, a tough draw," Murray said. "But I also feel like I'm in a much better place than where I was during any of the slams last year coming into it. I feel well prepared, I feel ready to play a top player early in the event, whereas maybe last year at times my game didn't feel that great."
