=== T. Torres (A) vs H. Gaston (B) -- Estoril, clay ===

MODELS: ELO 50.1% A | ML 20.7% A | Model 50.1% A | Market implies 30.2% A
  Book: A 3.03 / B 1.31  |  Betfair: A 3.80 / B 1.32
  ELO is a coin-flip; ML + market both hammer Gaston (~76-79%). ELO is inflated
  by Torres's two fresh clay wins over Tabilo (1848) and Basilashvili (1667) -- a
  futures-level player spiking off two matches. ML (20.7%) is the credible read.

RECENT FORM:
  Torres (A): 07-22 Estoril 1/8 W vs Tabilo (1848) 6-4 6-4 DOM/Strong;
    07-20 Estoril W vs Basilashvili (1667) 6-4 6-2 DOM/Strong; before that pure
    M25 futures on HARD -- 07-04 L Schoen, 07-03 W Ostapenkov (1493), 07-02 W
    Gonzalez (1343) GRIND. Level = M25; two hot ATP-clay results, not a new tier.
  Gaston (B): 07-22 Estoril 1/8 W vs Droguet (1807) 6-0 6-3 DOM/Strong;
    07-21 W Dzumhur (1711) 5-0 ret; 07-14 L Altmaier (1729); 07-12 Braunschweig
    FINAL L Choinski (1782); 07-11 W Diaz Acosta (1824) GRIND. Established
    tour/challenger clay player, proven vs Strong/Elite. Class edge is real.

FATIGUE: Torres 2 matches/14d, 6 sets, 205min, rested. Gaston 7 matches/14d,
  21 sets, 844min court time, back-to-back 4 -- extreme load. Court-time gap
  639min (>60) -> Gaston disadvantaged; both 24/25 so age-neutral, no softening.
  BUT Gaston looked fully sharp last out (6-0 6-3), so the fatigue tax is
  discounted, not decisive.

NARRATIVE: Gaston Braunschweig Final lost 11d ago -> no active let-down. TITLE:
  Wimbledon 28d ago (grass) -- irrelevant on clay. Both fresh off clay, no
  transition. Venue neutral (Torres's Estoril run is his hot streak itself).

ALT MARKETS: Handicap A +4.5 @1.76 / B -4.5 @1.89 (model null -- no margin read).
  Total 20.5: model Over 59.6% @1.78 -> comm-adj edge ~2.1%, below 5% bar.

VERDICT: PASS. Real ELO-market disagreement, but it's the classic hot-streak
  inflation trap -- ML and market agree Gaston is a big favorite and the
  level read (M25 Torres vs proven tour clay-courter) validates the market,
  not the ELO edge. Fatigue is Gaston's one soft spot but he's still clearly
  better and played sharp. No exchange market clears the edge threshold.
