A day of attrition struck Wimbledon on Wednesday as the top two seeds in the mens singles draw staggered out of the tournament because of injuries.
No. 1 Andy Murray, hobbling from a bothersome and prolonged hip injury, was upset by the American Sam Querrey in five uneven sets. Shortly afterward, No. 2 Novak Djokovic retired from his match with Tomas Berdych because of an elbow issue that has lingered for more than a year.
