nbcsports : declared in Andy Murray corrects reporter who casually ignores women’s tennis

LONDON (AP) Novak Djokovic is considering a break from tennis, with surgery on his injured right elbow now a possibility. The 12-time Grand Slam champion, who has won three Wimbledon titles, retired from his quarterfinal match against Tomas Berdych at the All England Club on Wednesday. That would be a first for Djokovic, who has been one of the best players on tour for about a decade. And after the first set against Berdych, he again called for a trainer to check his right arm. "It's not a time and place for me to talk about the details," Djokovic said after pulling out while trailing 7-6 (2), 2-0.
