The big-serving Canadian has long been tipped as the next man to break his major duck and made it to his first major final at SW19 before losing in straight sets to Andy Murray.
Raonic has seen his form improve dramatically since recruiting John McEnroe onto his coaching team, the seven-time Grand Slam winner tasked with turning good performances into title victories.
Aside from the Wimbledon defeat, Raonic also lost to Murray in the semi-finals at the Australian Open in January, where the British No 1 came from behind to win in five sets.
Raonic is yet to make it past the last-16 stage at the US Open, and disappointed last year as he crashed out in the third round in straight sets to Feliciano Lopez.
