2016 tennis event results
Main article: 2016 US Open (tennis)
Stan Wawrinka defeated the defending champion Novak Djokovic in the final, 6–7(1–7) , 6–4, 7–5, 6–3 to win the Men's Singles tennis title at the 2016 US Open. It was his third Grand Slam title; on all three occasions he defeated the world No. 1 player in the final. Wawrinka saved a match point en route to the title, against Dan Evans in the third round. Djokovic became the third man in the Open Era (after Ivan Lendl and Andy Murray ) to lose five major finals at one event.
This was the first US Open since 1999 not to feature five-time champion Roger Federer . This was the first major that Tomáš Berdych , then the world No. 8, missed ever since his debut at the 2003 US Open , ending his streak of 52 consecutive Grand Slam appearances (sixth-highest of all-time).[1]
No American player was seeded inside the top 16 for the first time since the introduction of the seeding system in 1930 .
