Six-time Australian Open champion Novak Djokovic has been out since last year's U.S. Open due to an elbow injury, but he will play in Melbourne as the No. 14 seed and has a tricky first-round matchup with American Donald Young.

A win would set up a potential second-round tilt with Gael Monfils. If Djoker reaches the quarterfinals, he would possibly take on No. 4 seed Alexander Zverev before meeting Federer in the semis.

Other notable seeds include No. 3 Grigor Dimitrov, No. 5 Dominic Thiem, No. 6 Marin Cilic, No. 7 David Goffin and No. 8 Jack Sock.

2014 Australian Open champion Stan Wawrinka is seeded ninth after battling injuries, and he will take on Ricardas Berankis in the first round.

Wawrinka is in the same quarter as Djokovic, Thiem and Zverev.

While Federer must contend with Goffin, Juan Martin Del Potro, Djokovic, Wawrinka, Thiem and Zverev in his half, Nadal has a seemingly easier half with Dimitrov and Cilic as the top potential threats.

Among the women, the draw appears wide open with Serena Williams not yet ready to return following her pregnancy.

No. 5 Venus Williams is a potential contender, but she has a tough first-round clash with Belinda Bencic, although Williams is 4-0 against her in her career.

While Halep is the top seed, she has a tricky draw, as a possible third-round matchup with No. 27 Petra Kvitova looms. Kvitova is a two-time Wimbledon champion and a 2012 Aussie Open semifinalist.

Other top women's seeds include No. 4 Elina Svitolina, No. 6 Karolina Pliskova and No. 7 Jelena Ostapenko.

Several Americans received seeds inside the top 20, including No. 10 Coco Vandeweghe, reigning U.S. Open champion Sloane Stephens at No. 13 and Madison Keys at No. 17.

Angelique Kerber, who won the 2016 Australian Open, is seeded 21st and will take on fellow German Anna-Lena Friedsam in the first round.

Maria Sharapova was the 2008 champion, and she will make her return to the tournament after missing out last year due to suspension.

Sharapova is unseeded, and she will face Tatjana Maria in the opening round.

Kerber and Sharapova could meet in the third round before going on to face Muguruza, who is a French Open and Wimbledon champ.

Along with Kvitova, Halep has possible meetings with Johanna Konta and Pliskova in her quarter, while Wozniacki could face Vandeweghe or Ostapenko en route to a possible final appearance.

Venus and Svitolina are the co-favorites in their part of the draw, although Stephens could play spoiler much like she did in last year's U.S. Open.

The tournament will begin Sunday and run through Jan. 28.
