Federer gives up the Olympics because of his family?
Roger Federer could miss the Olympic Games, reports the Swiss newspaper Blick
The International Olympic Committee announced that there will be no foreign audiences in Tokyo, and that is an official decision, and because of that, Federer could miss the Olympic Games. Federer does not want to be separated from his wife Mirka and four children, who cannot be with him in Japan, so the Swiss newspaper Blick is convinced that Roger will not play at the Olympic Games.
The family is always with the Swiss at every tournament and he simply cannot do without them, writes Blick.
Roger could not take his wife and children with him to Melbourne, so he missed the Australian Open and that speaks volumes about how close the Federer family is. If they could not be in Melbourne for a week or two, they will hardly be able to be separated for the five weeks that Federer would have to spend in Tokyo.
It is impossible for Federer to take the family with him to Japan, since the official decision has already been made and there will be no exceptions. He will make a final decision soon. The Olympic Games start on July 23 and last until August 8.
The athletes will come to Tokyo two weeks before the start of the Olympics.

The original article in Blick has a bit more info, including the fact Roger has told friends he won't travel to Japan without Mirka and the kids, "it's not a hard decision for me."
