2016 US Open – Men's Singles

Stan Wawrinka defeated defending champion Novak Djokovic, 6–7(1–7), 6–4, 7–5, 6–3 to capture the Men's Singles tennis title at the 2016 US Open. This was the first time the men's singles champion at the US Open won the title after being a match point down since Djokovic in 2011, with Wawrinka having saved a match point against Dan Evans in the 3rd round. As he had done in his 2 previous grand slam titles, Wawrinka again defeated the world No. 1 in the final. Djokovic also became the third man in the Open Era (after Ivan Lendl and Andy Murray) to lose five Grand Slam finals at one event.

This was the first US Open since 1999 not to feature five-time champion Roger Federer. It was also the first Grand Slam tournament since the 2004 French Open in which none of Federer, Rafael Nadal, or Andy Murray reached the semifinals. This was the first time since the 2010 French Open that only one of the Big Four players advanced to the semifinals.

No American player was seeded inside the top 16 for the first time since the introduction of the seeding system in 1930.

This was the first Grand Slam that Tomáš Berdych, world number 8 at the time, had missed since his maiden Slam at the 2003 US Open ending his streak of 52 consecutive grand slam appearances, sixth all time. The reason for his withdrawal was appendicitis.[1]

It was also the last Grand Slam tournament for former World No. 10 Juan Monaco and german player Benjamin Becker.
