Orsi Toth and Menegatti did not medal on the World Tour in 2016; their highest finish was a fourth at the $75K Sochi Open, as well as fifth-place finishes at three $400K Majors. They qualified for the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro on 13 June 2016 via their Olympic ranking points. The pair were ranked No. 7 in the world at the time, a career-best for Orsi Toth. On 2 August, three days before the start of the Olympics, Orsi Toth was found to have tested positive for clostebol, an anabolic steroid that is banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency. The positive sample came from an out-of-competition doping test conducted by the Italian Anti-Doping Organization on 19 July 2016. Orsi Toth was thus suspended from competition by the first chamber of Italy's National Anti-Doping Tribunal (TNA). A counter-analysis was performed the day after the initial announcement and confirmed the positive result. Orsi Toth was replaced by Laura Giombini at the Olympics, and Menegatti and Giombini went on to finish ninth in the tournament.
