Andy Murray has set his sights on another Grand Slam title at the US Open and we have plotted a possible route to the final at Flushing Meadows.
The British No 1 was crowned Wimbledon champion for a second time this summer and then added a second gold medal at the Rio Olympics to continue a hugely successful year for the Scot.
Up next for Murray is the New York tournament, scene of his first major title triumph in 2012, and the world No 2 will fancy his chances in the absence of the injured Roger Federer, and with defending champion Novak Djokovic showing a few signs of weakness.
But who are Murray's likely opponents as he advances through the draw in New York?
The Bulgarian has found some form on the hard courts in recent weeks, reaching the semi-finals of the Cincinnati Masters, and the 22nd seed should be able to set up another meeting with Murray.
If Dimitrov does advance this far, then Murray will treat him with respect, having lost their most recent match on the hard courts at the Miami Masters.
Dimitrov also delivered a painful defeat back in 2014 when Murray was defending his first Wimbledon title.
The sixth seed could supply the first genuine test to Murray's title ambitions if they meet in the quarters.
Nishikori, who was a losing finalist in 2014, was swept aside in straight sets by Murray in Rio, and has won just one of their eight matches.
But the classy Japanese player defeated Rafael Nadal to claim the bronze medal and previously reached the final at the Cincinnati Masters, where he lost to Novak Djokovic.
The third seed faces a tough opening match against Fernando Verdasco, who holds a winning record over him, but Wawrinka could clear a path to the last four if he finds a way past the Spaniard.
Murray holds the edge in their head-to-head, winning nine of their 16 matches and defeated the Swiss player at the same stage of this year's French Open.
But the world No 3 remains a dangerous foe and he ended Murray's defence of the US Open title with a quarter-final win in 2013.
Djokovic has not looked like his usual dominant self in recent months, losing in the early rounds at Wimbledon and the Rio Games, while a wrist injury has hampered his preparations.
But the Serb will be expected to mount a determined defence of his title and two best men's players on the planet could collide again in the final.
Djokovic has twice denied Murray major silverware this year with final wins in the Australian and French Open, but the Brit is playing the best tennis of his career and could continue his terrific 2016 with another Grand Slam crown.
