  Book: 2.80 / 1.41 | Betfair: 3.00 / 1.46 (implied A 33.3%, B 68.5%)

  at the executable price.

RANKING SANITY
  Sramkova rank 118 vs Knutson 182 — consistent with ELO favourite. ELO credible.

RECENT FORM (5 most recent each)
  Knutson (A): W Washington SF 07-25 vs S. Zhang (1733, Strong) in 3 sets (GRIND);
  L Prague final 07-19 (clay); W Prague SF 07-18; L Istanbul quali 07-15;
  W Istanbul quali 07-13. Busy multi-event stretch, mixed surfaces, quality win
  yesterday but grinding through everything.
  Sramkova (B): W Washington SF 07-25 vs C. Ansari (1452, Weak) straight sets (DOM);
  prior match 06-24 Wimbledon SF loss (grass, GRIND) — a month layoff before this
  event. W Wimbledon QF 07-23... (06-23). Fresh but light on recent volume.

FATIGUE (precomputed)
  Knutson: 459 court min, 5 matches/14d, back-to-back, Prague final 7d ago — heavy.
  Sramkova: 68 court min, 1 match/14d — fresh (rust risk from month layoff).
  Gap >60 min → Knutson disadvantaged. Both age 29 → baseline, no modulation.

NARRATIVE
  Let-down: Knutson lost Prague final 7d ago (NOTE, weak signal). Sramkova won French
  Open (lower-tier bracket) final 05-22 — too old to matter.
  Venue: both 1-0 at Washington this event.
  Transition: Knutson clay->hard 6d ago plus one hard match played; largely settled.

GATES
  G1 edge-origin: FAIL — no side clears 5% at the executable Betfair price before any
    fatigue/narrative adjustment (B ~1.3%; A rests on lone ML split vs ELO+market).
  G2 consensus:   FAIL — backing Knutson: market AND ELO both against, only ML
    dissents; no hard independent evidence (no H2H, dog is the fatigued side).
  G3 fatal-risk:  FAIL — the only qualitative story for the ML-split side (Knutson)
    is negated by her own 459-min / 5-match fortnight; Sramkova side has no edge to
    protect.

VERDICT: PASS. Market and ELO aligned, exchange price on Sramkova leaves ~1%, and the
lone ML dissent for Knutson is contradicted by her fatigue profile. Predicted winner:
R. Sramkova (~70%).
