Yes, I know I said that I wouldn’t write about tennis anymore….but the “failure” of Roger Federer to capture the gold in this year’s Olympics makes one wonder whether it’s time for him to exchange his tennis rackets for, say, golf equipment. I mean, winning the gold was supposed to lift up his slumping career this year and give him the needed boost. But luck wasn’t on his side this time. Another loss….But then, as a colleague and I have discussed, the year is still long (we still have half a year), and things can still happen. For a great player like Federer, setbacks like these will only serve to challenge him more!
(By the way, he and his partner Wawrinka did win the gold in the men’s doubles in tennis)
