Defending champion Novak Djokovic loses to Sam Querrey to crash out of Wimbledon
London: Novak Djokovic's 30-match Grand Slam winning streak is over after a stunning 7-6 (6), 6-1, 3-6, 7-6 (5) loss to 41st-ranked Sam Querrey in Wimbledon's third round.
Djokovic had won the past four major titles in a row — and was halfway to the first calendar-year Grand Slam for a man since Rod Laver's in 1969.
The match ended Saturday, when it was interrupted by three rain delays.
They began playing Friday, when Querrey grabbed a two-set lead before play was suspended by showers.
When they resumed Saturday, two-time defending Wimbledon champion Djokovic quickly took a 5-0 lead en route to winning the third set, and then he served for the fourth at 5-4. But he was broken there, and they headed to a tiebreaker. The match closed on a forehand error by Djokovic.
