Becker quits BBC role

Boris Becker has said he is giving up his job as a BBC commentator to focus on his new role as head coach of world No 2 Novak Djokovic. The 46-year-old Becker has worked as a BBC commentator alongside fellow former players John McEnroe and Pat Cash since 2002, but says his media role now conflicts with his position as Djokovic's mentor. Becker has already joined Djokovic in his training camp in Marbella, Spain.
