Consistent bounce, medium-fast: neutral conditions, no style favored.
Warm: the ball flies a little more and fitness counts.
Humid air: the ball loses some speed.
Light wind: no noticeable effect.
Surface feeds the model (surface specialization is one of its factors). Weather and altitude are context we publish for you — they do NOT move the probability.

The model makes V. Vacherot the favorite with a 68% win probability, against A. Kovacevic's 32% — a solid favorite, though Kovacevic keeps real chances. Converted to odds, that probability is worth about @1.46; the offered odds are around @1.88 (a 53% implied), slightly above the market, so the model is a touch more optimistic.
Several factors explain the number: #23 vs #89 (better ranked); performs +7% above baseline (61% career on the surface); model 68% vs market 53% → the model sees it as more likely than the odds; 4/10 in recent matches.
Read it with perspective. Our probability is calibrated — when the model says 68%, 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 32 out of every 100 times Kovacevic 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. Watch out for: Coming off 4 losses in a row.
