Andy Murray will open his French Open campaign against Russia's Andrey Kuznetsov.
The world number one has been struggling recently but will hope the best-of-five-sets format allows him to rediscover the form that carried him to the final at Roland Garros 12 months ago.
Should Murray make it past 85th-ranked Kuznetsov in round one, he would face either Slovakia's Martin Klizan or French wild card Laurent Lokoli.
A potential major danger lurks in round three in the shape of 29th seed Juan Martin Del Potro, should he recover from injury problems in time.
Murray was drawn in the same half as third seed Stan Wawrinka, who he beat in the semi-finals last year, with Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic potential last-four opponents in the bottom section.
In the women's draw, seventh seed Johanna Konta will play world number 109 Hsieh Su-wei from Chinese Taipei in the opening round.
The British number one is not a natural clay-courter but it would be a sizeable upset if she did not at least win her first ever match at Roland Garros.
Should she beat Hsieh, her second-round opponent would be either American Taylor Townsend or a qualifier, with a potential third-round meeting against France's Caroline Garcia.
