FATIGUE
Udvardy: 1 match/14d, 58 court min, last match Jun 29 → fresh but 15d rusty,
grass-to-clay transition.
Romero Gormaz: 5 matches/7d, 404 court min, back-to-back x2, played YESTERDAY.
Court-time diff 346 min → heavy fatigue disadvantage B.
NARRATIVE
B: TITLE Iasi 1d ago (clay) → LETDOWN flag — but a "Final" the day before a
1/16 round reads as the qualifying draw, i.e. match rhythm, not a peak crash.
Venue momentum: B is 2-0 at Iasi this week; A none.
A: no title recency; no venue history.
VERDICT: PASS
ELO and ML agree with the market — only the sim shows a thin 3.7% edge on A,
and the qualitative read does not validate it: the fatigue/letdown case
against Romero Gormaz is real, but Udvardy brings 5 losses in 7, a 15-day
layoff, and a grass-to-clay switch at 1.87. Two-sided noise, no validated
edge, no alt markets priced. Skeptic wins: pass.
