Federer has one last chance to fill the vacuum in the last
championships in the treasury, which saw the stadium erupted in tennis
genius.
And hosts the Wimbledon courts favorite player of the Swiss Olympic tennis competition in a few weeks and under 30 years and reaching the possession of 16 titles in Grand Slam, a record that Federer knows time is running out.
And left the dominance of Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic in the last period in the Swiss player to wait for the title 17 in major tournaments since winning the Australian Open in 2010.
And foolish only rule out a copy of the nominations in this year's Wimbledon held on the grass pitches, a title six times, but made his chance of victory the largest in the south-west London may come after several weeks in the Olympics.
From the moment in which he lost as a surprise to James Blake in the quarterfinals of the men's singles the Beijing Olympics four years ago, puts Federer in mind the London gold on the fifth of August, but it did not turn into an obsession.
In the presence of his wife Mirka - whom he met while he was competing in the Sydney 2000 - and two daughters and millions in the bank and the men's doubles Olympic gold with his friend Stanislas Wawrinka Federer seems relaxed.
Still celebrating with Wawrinka in China when the two around the field house and two Mtaannagan brings a smile to the Swiss.
Said Federer, who wept after failing to win a bronze Sydney Games also came out of the second round of the 2004 Athens Olympics at the hands of Czech Tomas Berdych, "I feel pressure less ... because I won the doubles gold Olympic already in Beijing with Stan and that was a feeling amazing and made me very proud because I did it for Switzerland. "
He said recently, "I'll be very excited for the fourth time .. But my fourth, so I think I'll be more relaxed before going to the Olympics."
He continued, "But I do not feel as if I did not win before. Tried several times, especially in the last two and I have a chance to win Olympic gold."
He went on saying, "It will be a great tournament. I want to enjoy it and not just the feeling of pressure and just talk about what if I have not had to win. I do not see things this way. Any medal would be good but of course in my position .. I look forward to gold."
Some believe that tennis does not need the Olympics.
But Mr. Nadal after his victory in Beijing proved how much the title meant for him and his career, if Federer was crowned this year's Olympic gold medal, it will be one of the signs of the London Olympics.
Federer believes that the presence in the Olympics is good for tennis.

He added, "It's huge for the sport of tennis and the players of this generation. Could not feel more enthusiasm than that." The system will help the tournament Federer as well.
The games have become resolved on the basis of the best in the five groups a heavy burden on the big players these days even for a player under level is surprisingly high despite the rise of Nadal and Djokovic.
At the Olympics will use the system the best in the three groups until the final. The matches are determined by the moment of a witch is still owned by Federer in abundance.
Federer and raise the Swiss flag twice in the opening ceremony of the Olympics and will be a surprise if they do not do it again.
