Wawrinka saved a match point en route to the title, against Dan Evans in the third round. Djokovic was the third man in the Open Era (after Ivan Lendl and Andy Murray) to lose five finals at the same major. This was the first US Open since 1999 not to feature five-time champion Roger Federer. This was the first major that Tomáš Berdych missed since his debut at the 2003 US Open, ending his streak of 52 consecutive major appearances (sixth-highest of all-time).https://www.si.com/US/tennis/2016/08/20/tomas-berdych-withdraws-us-open-due-appendicitis Tomas Berdych withdraws from U.S. Open due to appendicitis Sports Illustrated August 20, 2016 June 4, 2017 No American man was seeded inside the top 16 for the first time since the introduction of the seeding system in 1930.
