FATIGUE
Djere: 5 matches/14d, 15 sets, 586 min, back-to-back x2, played YESTERDAY (quali final)
Halys: 3 matches/14d, 9 sets, 499 min, 2 days rest (two matches on 07-17)
Court-time diff 87 min → Djere is the heavier side. Real but partially offset:
quali wins were routine DOMs (match-tough, court-acclimated), not grinds.
NARRATIVE
Djere: "Won Final 1d ago" fires LETDOWN mechanically, but it is the QUALIFYING
final (path: Waldner ELO 1108 → Dellien) — rhythm positive, not a title hangover.
Venue: Djere 2-0 at Kitzbuhel this week. Halys: no venue history, no title signals.
VERDICT — PASS
Side A: exchange 1.53 kills it. Min odds at p≈0.60-0.65 is 1.62-1.75; 1.53 executable
is an automatic PASS (pricing discipline #3). The book 1.64 does not confirm value.
Side B: Halys needs ≥51.5% to clear 1.05/p at 2.04. Fatigue edge + rest is real, but
both models favor Djere (ML still 54.3% A), Djere's quali form is dominant on this
exact court, and Halys' last outing was a grind loss. Best case Halys ~44-46% → no edge.
Alt markets (handicap/totals) not priced → ml only. ELO and exchange fully aligned →
efficient market. PASS.
