I'm excited to see what Felix can do on grass this year. As you say, he's definitely less suited for clay than many players at this point.
Hopefully someone gives him a wild card into one of the 500 events and he's also able to qualify for Wimbledon. This could be a springboard for his atp level career much like Denis experienced last year.
