ROGER Federer feels a return to top form could be months away, although he's not ruling out something special at the Australian Open.

By the 17-time grand slam title winner's freakishly high standards, last year was poor.

For the first time in 11 years he did not reach the final of any of the four majors and he fell out of the top five in the world rankings for the first time in more than a decade.

But rather than contemplate retirement, the 32-year-old's response has been to train harder in the off-season, hire boyhood idol Stefan Edberg as his new coach and experiment with a new, larger racquet.

He's confident he can revive his career fortunes, even if it doesn't happen immediately.

"I trained probably harder than all the guys ranked ahead of me in the off-season, because they went off to play exhibitions, like I did last year," Federer said on Wednesday, after a charity event at Melbourne Park for his foundation which supports education for educating underprivileged children in southern Africa.

"So that goes with me. I did full-on months, which I haven't done in a long time and my body held up for that.

"Then I played singles and doubles in Brisbane (last week) ... I really feel I'm on my way back.

"Who knows? Maybe I'm playing my very best in March or April is my feeling. But I still feel there's a lot possible right now."
