FATIGUE
A: 2 matches/14d, 6 sets, 183 min, last match 07-06 → 8 days rest. Fresh.
B: 4 matches/14d, 12 sets, 304 min, 2 back-to-backs, played FINAL yesterday (07-13).
Court-time diff 121 min → Oz clearly disadvantaged.
NARRATIVE
Let-down: Oz lost a Final 1d ago → NOTE (not the classic won-title letdown).
Venue: Oz 1-1 at Iasi this week (SF win, F loss) — venue-warm but on tired legs.
Oliynykova: no title recency; clay is her better surface, grass blowouts likely noise here.
VERDICT: PASS
ELO and ML point opposite directions vs the market — no model consensus to anchor a bet.
Backing A at 1.23 needs >81% true prob; her 4-match skid and 0-6 0-6 / 0-6 2-6 losses make
that a stretch even discounting grass. Backing B at 4.10 needs >24.4%; ML says 32% but she
played a final YESTERDAY on 2 back-to-backs with zero wins above Avg opposition — the
qualitative read kills the ML edge. Class edge (A) vs fatigue+match-toughness (B) roughly
offset. No alt markets priced. No stake.
