FATIGUE
  Martinez: 6 matches/14d, 18 sets, 746 min court, back-to-back 3, played yesterday.
  Darderi:  4 matches/14d, 12 sets, 516 min court, back-to-back 2, last 07-19.
  Court-time diff 230 min (>60) → HEAVIER Martinez disadvantaged. But he is the
  underdog, so fatigue only reinforces the already-priced favorite (Darderi).

NARRATIVE
  Let-down: Martinez won Estoril Final 2d ago → LETDOWN spot, but he is the DOG
  (letdown on a dog just adds to Darderi's price, no dog-value). Darderi lost a
  Final 2d ago → NOTE. Both tired; neither edge is un-priced.

MARKET SCAN (edge = my prob − 1/executable price)
  ML B @1.30 (Betfair): edge +1.6% commission-adj; min_odds 1.322 > 1.30 → auto-PASS.
  Handicap A +4.5 @1.63: cover .544 vs .614 → NEG.
  Handicap B -4.5 @2.06: cover .456 vs .485 → NEG.
  Total Under 21.5 @1.82: .563 vs .550 → +1.3% raw, ~0 after commission → no edge.
  Total Over @1.83: .437 vs .546 → NEG.

VERDICT: PASS. Full model+market consensus on Darderi; every priced market sub-2%
edge and the ML favorite fails the min-odds gate. Fatigue/letdown both point at the
already-favored side — no un-priced dog value. Nothing to bet.
