I don't think that makes sense. Denis did it first, and so already has the hype behind him - being the second version of the story is never going to get you as much attention. Moreover, Denis's story is still going on, and he had the spotlight all to himself last year - this time, if Felix does well, they'll share it to some extent.
But also, it's pretty damned unlikely that Felix gets to where Denis got to in his first year. He's ranked 178. Getting into the top 100 would be an awesome accomplishment right now. Denis, meanwhile, is aiming at R16 in slams. They're in different conversations.
