2016 Wimbledon Championships – Men's singles

Andy Murray defeated Milos Raonic in the final, 6–4, 7–6(7–3), 7–6(7–2) to win the gentlemen's singles tennis title at the 2016 Wimbledon Championships. It was his second Wimbledon title and third major title overall. Raonic became the first Canadian man to reach a major singles final. He was also the first non-European to reach the Wimbledon final since Andy Roddick in 2009, the first player born in the 1990s to reach a major final, and the first non-European to make any major final since Kei Nishikori at the 2014 US Open.

Novak Djokovic was the two-time defending champion, but lost in the third round to Sam Querrey. This was Djokovic's first defeat before the quarterfinals of a major since the 2009 French Open. The defeat also ended his streak of four consecutive major victories, dating back to the 2015 Wimbledon Championships. Querrey became the first American man to reach the quarterfinals at a singles major since John Isner and Andy Roddick at the 2011 US Open.

Semifinalist and seven-time Wimbledon champion Roger Federer did not play tennis for the rest of the season due to knee and back injuries.
