All recent matches on GRASS -> TRANSITION to hard.

TRANSITION to hard for him too. FATIGUE Both players 0 matches in 14d, well rested. Roughly equal — no fatigue angle (Kwon 28, Rubio 27, age-neutral). NARRATIVE - Let-down: none in window (Kwon's last Final win 30d ago; Rubio lost Troyes Final 26d ago — outside window). - Venue: no Los Cabos history in sample for either. - Surface transition: BOTH grass/clay -> hard; rust on both sides, no directional edge; widens margin uncertainty but no alt markets are priced anyway. GATES G1 edge-origin: FAIL — best numeric edge is Kwon +2.1% vs book (needs 8% book-priced; even standard bar is 5%) G2 consensus: PASS — models and market agree on Kwon; no contrarian claim made G3 fatal-risk: PASS — no thesis staked, nothing to negate VERDICT: PASS. Full model-market consensus on a heavy favorite at 1.07 with no exchange liquidity and no alt markets. Backing Kwon offers no payable edge; backing the dog contradicts every model and his own form (losing to 1180-1450 ELO players on clay). No bet.
