The model makes L. Tien the favorite with a 71% win probability, against K. Khachanov's 29% — a solid favorite, though Khachanov keeps real chances. Converted to odds, that probability is worth about @1.40; the offered odds are around @1.59 (a 63% implied), slightly above the market, so the model is a touch more optimistic.
Several factors explain the number: #15 vs #50 (better ranked); 61% career on the surface; model 71% vs market 63% → the model sees it as more likely than the odds; 8/10 in recent matches.
Read it with perspective. Our probability is calibrated — when the model says 71%, that outcome happens roughly that percentage of the time, with ~65% out-of-sample accuracy — but being the favorite is not being the winner: roughly 29 out of every 100 times Khachanov wins. The model also tends to agree with the market, so the odds already capture almost all the edge: don't take it as a sure value.
