Consistent bounce, medium-fast: neutral conditions, no style favored.
Mild: neutral conditions.
Humid air: the ball loses some speed.
Light wind: no noticeable effect.

›Recent form: 7/10 in recent matches
›Head-to-head: 5-0 in favor
›Solid on Hard: 63% career on the surface
The model makes B. Shelton the favorite with a 71% win probability, against B. Nakashima's 29% — a solid favorite, though Nakashima keeps real chances. Converted to odds, that probability is worth about @1.41; the offered odds are around @1.41 (a 71% implied), virtually the same as what the market prices in.
Several factors explain the number: 7/10 in recent matches; 5-0 in favor; 63% career on the surface.
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 Nakashima 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.
