Who was the runner- up of the men's singles at Wimbledon in 2016?

The story behind the answer

Who was the runner-up of the men’s singles at Wimbledon in 2016? Milos Raonic was the runner-up.

Raonic reached his first Grand Slam singles final at the 2016 Wimbledon Championships. The Canadian defeated Roger Federer in the semifinal, winning in four sets and becoming the first Canadian man to reach a major singles final.

In the final on July 10, 2016, Raonic faced Britain’s Andy Murray on Centre Court. Murray won in straight sets, 6–4, 7–6(3), 7–6(2), to claim his second Wimbledon singles title. Raonic’s powerful serve and aggressive first-strike game made him a difficult opponent, but Murray’s returning, movement, and consistency proved decisive.

The result is sometimes confused with the 2016 Australian Open, where Murray was also the runner-up. At Wimbledon that year, however, Raonic was the finalist who finished second, while Murray became champion.
