The 2016 Stan Wawrinka tennis season begins at the Chennai Open, where he won the fourth title and the third in a row at Chennai.

Year summary

[edit]

Australian Open and early hard court season

[edit]

Chennai

[edit]

Wawrinka started his 2016 tennis campaign by playing at the 2016 Aircel Chennai Open, where he was bidding for his third straight title win in a row. Wawrinka won against Andrey Rublev, Guillermo García-López and Benoît Paire in straight sets, before facing Borna Ćorić in the final. At the final, he won the match in straight sets 6-3 7-5, winning him also his fourth Chennai title in his career, and his twelfth career title overall.

Australian Open

[edit]

After winning the title in Chennai, Wawrinka participated in the first Grand Slam of the season in the 2016 Australian Open. He first faced Dmitry Tursunov who is participating on his first Grand Slam after more than a year of being absent on the tour due to injury. Wawrinka won the first two sets before Tursunov retired from the match. Wawrinka then faced Radek Štěpánek in the second round, where he was able to defeat the Czech in straight sets. He then faced another Czech in Lukáš Rosol in the third round, where Wawrinka defeated him also in straight sets. At the fourth round, he faced Canadian Milos Raonic in the fourth round. Raonic was able to win the first two sets against Wawrinka, but Wawrinka was able to push the match into a decider. Wawrinka was not able to fully come back however, as Raonic was able to win the deciding set 6-3. The loss stops the streak of six straight Grand Slam quarterfinals that started during the 2014 Wimbledon Championships.

Indoor hard-court tournaments

[edit]

Wawrinka did not appear in Rotterdam to defend his title.

Marseille

Wawrinka after receiving a first round bye would get revenge on Sergiy Stakhovsky in a tight three set match, who defeated him in the quarterfinals the previous year, but he would go on to lose to good friend Benoît Paire in the next round in three sets.

Dubai

[edit]

After being two points from defeat in his opening round match against Stakhovsky, Wawrinka proceeded to defeat qualifier Franko Skugor, Philipp Kohlschreiber, and Nick Kyrgios (in their first match since the Montreal incident in 2015) in succession, before defeating Marcos Baghdatis in straight sets to win the Dubai Duty Free title.
