RECENT FORM (most-recent first, max 5)
  Etcheverry:
   07-22 W Rodionov (1658) 6-2 7.7-6.4  GRIND
   07-15 L Merida (1742)   5-7 4-6
   06-30 L Sonego (grass, Wimbledon)
   06-27 W Cobolli (grass, exhibition)
   06-24 L Diallo (grass, Eastbourne)
   Clay 2026: ugly — losses to Borges (0-6 final set), Bellucci,
   Fils, Merida; only the Kitzbuhel opener won. Live clay form poor.

  Buse:
   07-22 W Feldbausch (1755) 6-2 2-6 2-6  GRIND (3 sets)
   07-20 W Kopriva (1740)    5-7 7-6 1-6  GRIND (3 sets)
   07-14 L Tsitsipas (1795)  6-4 6-4
   07-01 L Brooksby (grass, Wimbledon)
   06-29 W Nava (grass, Wimbledon)
   Clay pedigree strong: Hamburg title run beating Paul (1980),
   Cobolli (1903), Mensik. Superior clay form vs A.

FATIGUE
  A: 231 court-min /14d, 2 matches, 6 sets — fresher
  B: 429 court-min /14d, 3 matches, 9 sets — two back-to-back
     3-set grinders (07-20, 07-22)
  Diff 198 min > 60 → Buse disadvantaged. Fatigue favors A and
  is the reason ML compresses this toward a pickem despite B's
  clearly better clay form.

NARRATIVE
  Venue: Buse 2-0 at Kitzbuhel this week; A 1-0.
  Title recency: Buse won Hamburg Final vs Paul ~60d ago (clay) —
  weak recency, not a live-form driver.
  Let-down: none active.

VERDICT — PASS
  Model favors B (55%) on clay form; ML pushes to 50/50 on
  fatigue. Market (B 1.84 exch) already prices B as favorite,
  aligned with ELO/blend. No independent qualitative edge:
  B's form edge is offset by a real 198-min fatigue gap.
  Pricing: B min_odds = 1.05/0.552 = 1.90 > 1.84 executable →
  commission-adj edge NEGATIVE. A ML at 2.08 also below min
  (2.19). Handicap 0.5 ≈ ML, no gain. Total 23.0 edge thin
  (~2%). Nothing clears the bar. PASS.
