Andy Murray's 2016 tennis season began at the Australian Open.
Year summary
Australian Open and early hard court season
Prior to the Australian Open, Murray paired with Heather Watson to compete in the Hopman Cup. They were knocked out in the round robin stage after winning 2 out of 3 ties.
Australian Open
Murray came through the opening two rounds of the Australian Open in straight sets against Alexander Zverev and Sam Groth for a combined loss of only 11 games.[1][2] He followed this up with a four set win over João Sousa in the third round and a straight set win over Bernard Tomic in the fourth round to reach the quarterfinals.[3][4]
In the quarterfinals Murray defeated David Ferrer in four sets. The match lasted over three hours, however Ferrer did not manage to hit a single ace.[5]
Murray next played Milos Raonic in the semifinals. In another long affair, lasting over four hours, Murray came through in five sets to reach his fifth Australian Open Final.[6]
In the final Murray played Novak Djokovic. It was their fourth meeting in an Australian Open final, with Djokovic having won the other three. Murray was not able to overcome the Serb and after losing the first five games ended up going down in three sets.[7]
Davis Cup First Round
After taking February off to spend time with his new daughter, Sophia,[8] Murray returned to action against Japan in the first round of the Davis Cup. He won his first singles rubber against Taro Daniel in straight sets before joining his brother Jamie to win the doubles against Yoshihito Nishioka and Yasutaka Uchiyama, also in straight sets.[9] In his second singles rubber he defeated Kei Nishikori in five sets, having been two sets up at one point, thus securing the tie for Great Britain.[10]
BNP Paribas Open, Indian Wells
Murray began the first Masters series tournament of the year by beating Marcel Granollers in straight sets,[11] but then lost to Federico Delbonis in the next round in three sets, despite holding a 4-1 lead in the third set.[12]
Miami Masters
Murray exited at the third round for the second tournament in a row, beating Denis Istomin in straight sets[13] but losing to Grigor Dimitrov in the following match.[14] Several commentators suggested that Murray was looking "exhausted", and that his form had appeared to drop since becoming a father for the first time.[15]
European clay court season and French Open
Monte-Carlo Masters
In his first tournament on clay of the year, Murray beat Pierre-Hugues Herbert in his first match in three sets[16] and recovered from a set and double-break down to beat Benoît Paire,[17] reaching his first quarter-final since the Australian Open. There he beat Raonic for the second time in the year, losing just two games in the match,[18] but lost to eventual champion Rafael Nadal in the semi-final.[19]
Murray also competed in the doubles with partner Dominic Inglot, reaching the quarter finals before losing to Herbert and Nicolas Mahut.[18]
Madrid Open
Murray arrived in Madrid as the defending champion, and defeated Radek Štěpánek, Gilles Simon and Tomáš Berdych on the way to a second semi-final of the year against Nadal, this time winning in straight sets.[20] In the final he lost to Novak Djokovic in three sets, a result that saw Murray fall to number three in the world rankings for the first time in 2016.[21]
Italian Open
Prior to the tournament, it was announced that Andy Murray's coach, Amélie Mauresmo, would no longer be working with him.[22][23] In the tournament itself, Murray recorded victories over Mikhail Kukushkin, Jérémy Chardy, David Goffin[24] and Lucas Pouille, all in straight sets, to reach his first final in the Rome Masters.[25] Once again he faced Djokovic, but this time won, again in straight sets, to win his first title of 2016 and 12th Masters title overall, as a result returning to the #2 ranking.[26][27]
French Open
In his first round match, Murray was drawn against Radek Štěpánek and lost the first two sets, winning the third set before the match was suspended due to bad light. He recovered to win the match the following day in five sets.[28] In the second round Murray again had to come from behind to win in five sets, this time against wild card Frenchman Mathias Bourgue.[29] In the third and fourth rounds Murray won in straight sets against Ivo Karlović and John Isner respectively,[30][31] before defeating Richard Gasquet in four sets to reach his fourth French Open semi-final.[32] There he defeated defending champion Stanislas Wawrinka to reach his first final at the French Open and tenth overall, also becoming the tenth man in the Open Era to have reached all four Slam finals at least once.[33][34] In the final he again played Novak Djokovic, their third tournament final in a row, winning the first set before eventually losing in four sets.[35][36]
Grass Court Season
As the grass court season began, Murray announced that he would again be working with former coach Ivan Lendl, after they had split in 2014.[37]
Queen's Club Championships
Murray defeated Nicolas Mahut in the first round, and then played his first tour-level matches against fellow Britons since losing to Tim Henman in 2006, defeating Aljaž Bedene and then Kyle Edmund in the quarter-finals in three sets.[38][39] Murray reached the final after defeating Marin Čilić in the semi-finals,[40] and won the title after coming from a set and a break down to defeat Milos Raonic for the third time in 2016.[41] With this win Murray became the first person ever to win five titles at Queen's club.[42]
Wimbledon Championships
After straight-sets victories over Liam Broady, Lu Yen-hsun, John Millman and Nick Kyrgios, Murray reached his ninth consecutive quarter-final at Wimbledon.[43][44][45][46] He then defeated Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in five sets, having been two sets up, to reach the semi-final for the seventh time,[47] where he won in straight sets against Tomáš Berdych, reaching his third Slam final of 2016 and eleventh overall, more than any other British male player.[48][49] For the first time in a Slam final, Murray's opponent was neither Djokovic nor Federer but Milos Raonic, who had beaten Federer in the semi finals, while Djokovic had lost earlier to Sam Querrey.[50] Murray won the match in straight sets, winning his third Grand Slam title and second at Wimbledon.[51][52]
