He was a lucky loser at the French Open and defeated Daniel Muñoz de la Nava in the first round of the main draw and 29th seed Lucas Pouille in the second, before losing to 8th-seed Milos Raonic in the third round.[4]

Later in the year, Martin participated in the 2016 Summer Olympics. After comfortably defeating Denis Kudla in the first round, Martin got a walkover into the 3rd round when opponent Philipp Kohlschreiber withdrew with an injury. However, Martin was then beaten by the 4th-seeded Kei Nishikori, 2–6, 2–6.

He achieved a career-high ATP singles ranking of world No. 98 in July 2016 following his runs to the third round of the French Open and the final in Umag.

2020: Career-high singles ranking edit

He reached a career-high ranking of No. 93 on 10 February 2020 after a semifinal showing at the 2020 Córdoba Open defeating Corentin Moutet in the quarterfinals before losing to eventual champion Cristian Garín.
