FATIGUE
  A: 3 matches/7d, 4/14d, 425 court-min, back-to-back, played 07-21
  B: 2 matches/7d, 2/14d, 290 court-min, played 07-20
  Court-time diff 135min (>60) -> A materially disadvantaged.
  Edge: clear fatigue tilt to B.

NARRATIVE
  Letdown: A won Kitzbuhel Final 07-19 (2d ago) -> LETDOWN on A.
  Title recency: A TITLE Kitzbuhel 2d ago (clay) -- but immediately
  hurts, not helps: peak spent, now facing a stronger, fresher man.
  A is volatile — recent cards littered with 0-6/1-6 sets; blowout
  risk both directions.

PRICING
  Model blend A 42.8% vs Betfair A commission-adj 40.0% -> edge ~2.8%,
  min_odds 2.46 (2.58 clears) but thin AND qualitatively contradicted.
  Handicap A+2.5 @2.0: model covers 58%, nominal edge ~8% — BUT the
  cover thesis rests on a tight match; A's fatigue + letdown on slow
  clay (widens margins) + A's blowout-prone profile all shave that 58%
  toward coin-flip. Edge not validated, it's undercut.
  Total 22.0: over 1.7% / under negative — no edge.

VERDICT: PASS
  The only model edge (A / A+2.5) is contradicted by the read:
  A is the tired, spent-title side facing the higher-quality, fresher
  clay player. Skeptic passes — no market survives both tests.
