RECENT FORM (last 5 shown; all fetched matches used)
  Torres (A) — all ITF Futures level:
    07-04 M25 Figueira SF   L vs P. Schoen (1596)
    07-03 M25 Figueira QF   W vs Ostapenkov (1493)   DOM vs Weak
    07-02 M25 Figueira 1/8  W vs Gonzalez F. (1343)  GRIND vs Weak (2 TBs)
    07-01 M25 Figueira 1/16 W vs L. Liu (1500)       GRIND vs Avg
    06-27 M25 Porto SF      L vs Overbeck (1600)
    → 90d sample: zero Elite/Strong wins; only Strong faced (Faria 1737) was a loss.
  Basilashvili (B) — ATP level:
    07-16 Bastad 1/8   L vs Tirante (1809, Strong) in 3
    07-14 Bastad 1/16  W vs Choinski (1791)         GRIND vs Strong (TB)
    07-07 Braunschweig L vs Gaubas (1635) in 3
    06-30 Milan        L vs Brancaccio (1524) (ret-shaped score)
    06-22 Wimbledon QF L vs Ymer (1610)
    → Erratic 2-5 stretch, but every match vs Avg/Strong ATP opposition.

FATIGUE
  A: 0 matches / 0 sets 14d — well rested (16 days off; mild rust note)
  B: 3 matches / 9 sets / 473 court-min 14d, last match 4d ago
  → Diff >60min: B heavier, but 4 days rest largely mitigates.

NARRATIVE
  Let-down: none (B's Halle Final 36d ago — outside window)
  Venue: no Estoril history for either → none
  TITLE: B — Halle 36d ago (grass); Rome + Madrid finals won in May

VERDICT: PASS
  The 14.7-pt ELO edge on Torres is a cross-level artifact: his ELO is built on
  M15/M25 fields vs ~1500 opposition and does not transfer to an ATP main draw.
  ML model (23.2%) sides with market (23.8%) — the one model tuned on features
  beyond raw ELO sees no value. Qualitative read kills the edge: massive class
  gap favors Basilashvili; his fatigue is real but half-mitigated by 4 days rest
  and does not make a Futures player 38% to win.
  Alt markets: AH A+4.5 @1.86 / B-4.5 @2.06 — no model cover anchor, and
  Basilashvili's blowout-or-bust volatility cuts both ways → no independent
  margin read. Total 21.5: model O 55.0% vs 51.5% implied = ~3.5% edge, below
  the bar and derived from the same models. No stakeable edge in any market.
