ANDY Murray's pursuit of that elusive second Wimbledon title will begin on Tuesday with an all-British battle against Liam Broady. The draw for the 2016 event, which was made at the All England Club yesterday morning, set up a first-ever competitive meeting between the World No 2 and Broady, an occasional Davis Cup team-mate, who is ranked No 234 in the world and enters the competition on a wild card. Having not met one of his fellow countrymen in a competitive match for almost a decade, co-incidentally the match will be the Scot's third such match in a fortnight, having taken care of Aljaz Bedene and Kyle Edmund during his run to a record-breaking fifth Queen's Club title last week.

Hailing from Stockport in Greater Manchester, Broady was a talented junior player, losing in the Wimbledon boys' final in 2011 and claiming two junior Grand Slam titles in doubles. His senior career has been something of a slow burn, though, although he did reach the second round at this venue 12 months previously, overcoming Australia's Marinko Matosevic before going down to David Goffin of Belgium.

On the face of it, this was a favourable draw for the 29-year-old Scot, who is hoping to replicate his 2013 victory here. He located the opposite half of the draw to Milos Raonic and Roger Federer, meaning the earliest he could meet either of those players or Novak Djokovic would be the final.

Yen Hsun-Lu, the Taiwanese player who is the only man ever to beat the Scot on Olympic singles duty, from Beijing in 2008, is a potential second round opponent, with the likes of Benoit Paire, Nick Kyrgios, Richard Gasquet and Stan Wawrinka are other potential obstacles in his path. The Scot disposed of both Gasquet and Wawrinka at Roland Garros recently.

Djokovic, chasing a third successive title at SW19, with all four major titles in his possession, also finds British opposition littering his path. The Serb will face James Ward, the World No 177, on the tournament's opening day, and could face Kyle Edmund in the second round should the British No 2 prove too strong for Adrian Mannarino of France. Edmund performed creditably against the Serb in Miami, even in a straight sets defeat.

Elsewhere, Serena Williams, the reigning women's champion and No 1 player on the WTA tour, is on a collision course with Heather Watson, the Channel Islander who ran her so close 12 months previously. Jamie Murray, the World No 1 doubles player, and his Brazilian partner Bruno Soares faces a first round with a Scottish twist against Colin Fleming and his Israeli partner Jonathan Erlich.

Murray, meanwhile, has revealed that his hunger for a second Wimbledon title is being fuelled by a perfectly balanced diet. The Scot has been working closely with LTA nutritionist Glenn Kearney in the last few weeks with a view to ensuring that nothing is left to chance when it comes to meal times. For instance, pre-match pasta is off the menu as it was making him belch during matches.

"I try to avoid pasta before matches now," said Murray. "Often, if I ate it too close to a match and then drank a lot, I would feel like I was burping a lot during the match which actually happened a lot at the French Open in the match against [Mathias] Bourgue. I didn't feel that great during that match.

"Obviously eating chocolate and stuff before matches is not good," he added. "I wouldn't do that anyway but there is nothing that was in my diet that has changed drastically. It is just having it better planned and getting what I need at the right times of the day, eating an hour and a half before a match rather than two hours before a match.

"You tell a nutritionalist when you are playing and he sends a plan through for the day and then I just stick to what it is. Often breakfast is the same: I normally have a smoothie with scrambled eggs and a bagel and then during the day it changes. I don't ever have salmon for dinner one night then salmon the next night. I just have a more balanced diet than before but I am eating the same things really. I think it can help a little bit but it doesn't make drastic changes to how you are."
