The model makes J. Ostapenko the favorite with a 65% win probability, against T. Preston's 35% — a solid favorite, though Preston keeps real chances. Converted to odds, that probability is worth about @1.54; the offered odds are around @1.37 (a 73% implied), slightly below the market, so the model is a touch more cautious.
Several factors explain the number: #32 vs #94 (better ranked); model 65% vs market 73% → the model sees it as less likely than the odds; 6/10 in recent matches.
Read it with perspective. Our probability is calibrated — when the model says 65%, that outcome happens roughly that percentage of the time, with ~64% out-of-sample accuracy — but being the favorite is not being the winner: roughly 35 out of every 100 times Preston 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.
