Djokovic loses his semifinal match in Tokyo to Zverev by 1-6 6-3 6-1, so he won't be getting that Golden Slam.
He still has a good chance of achieving the calendar year Grand Slam, which would be a first for a male player in I don't know how many decades.

Apparently, only Steffi Graf was great enough to accomplish it.  |

So by quitting - hasn't he cost his teammate a chance at a medal?

The world No. 1 and reigning Australian Open, Wimbledon and French Open champion lost his bronze medal singles match to Spain's Pablo Carreno Busta on Saturday. He then withdrew from a bronze medal mixed doubles match that was scheduled shortly after his singles loss, citing a left shoulder injury. Details of the injury were not immediately clear.
