This year, it came as a rude shock when he lost to Rafael Nadal in the Wimbledon finals. Although he fought off two match points, he still could not save himself from a humiliating loss.
Humiliating because he is a better player on grass when compared to Nadal. The loss also saw Federer losing the championship record. If he had won, he would have been the first player in the world to win six Wimbledon titles in a row. His fans wept and prayed to all the gods to allow him a generous win, but all the prayers were left unanswered.
The greatest aspect of Federer is that he is willing to take his chances again next year, and begin to set a record in tennis. He is young, and has plenty of time to get what he wants in the game. He is also looking forward to playing great games in the 2008 Olympics to be held in Beijing. Blame it on the gods, because this tennis God is yet to win a Grand Slam on the clay court.

This international games event is held once in four years, after a board of panel members vote for the city. This year, the prestigious event will be held in Beijing, China. It is always a big honor for any city, if they are allowed to host such a massive event such as the Olympics.
It is not only a reflection about the government of the country, it also talks about the good infrastructure the city will have. Every year, millions of dollars are spent to construct the grand stadium for the games. It is no exception this year as well. There will be a spectacular fireworks display and there will be millions watching this event from the stands as well as on television from all over the world.
The main source of revenue for Olympics will be from the sales of the millions of tickets for various events during the two week schedule. There will also be plenty of sponsors to help with various events. People travel from all over the world to cheer their teams to victory. Let us see if United States bags the first place again with the number of medals they capture.
