FATIGUE (14d)
  Udvardy: 2 matches, 6 sets, ~250 court-min, 0 back-to-back, played 07-16
  Badosa:  7 matches, 21 sets, ~653 court-min, 3 back-to-back, played 07-16
  Diff: +403 min / +5 matches on Badosa → heavy fatigue disadvantage (well past 60-min threshold).

NARRATIVE
  Let-down: Badosa won Bastad Final 6d ago → WEAK window, partially mitigated by two Iasi wins,
  but yesterday's TB grind vs a 1562 opponent shows the legs going.
  Venue: both 2-0 at Iasi this week. Title recency: Badosa — Bastad 6d ago (clay).

VERDICT
  ELO meaningfully disagrees with market (+6.7pts on A) and the qualitative read validates it:
  extreme cumulative load on Badosa (8 matches in 12 days, 3 B2Bs, 650+ min) plus post-title
  stretch, with a visible fatigue tell yesterday. Counterweight: ML agrees with market and the
  common-opponent gap is stark (Badosa DOM'd Kalinina 6-3 6-1; Udvardy lost to her 0-6 3-6).
  Net: shave Badosa from ~73% to ~67.5%. A @3.50 → my 32.5% vs 28.6% implied = ~3.9% edge.
  Thin but real → BET Udvardy ML, 1.0u. alt_markets null → ml only.
