The model makes Frances Tiafoe the favorite with a 65% win probability, against Alejandro Davidovich Fokina's 35% — a solid favorite, though Fokina keeps real chances. Converted to odds, that probability is worth about @1.54; the offered odds are around @1.94 (a 52% implied), slightly above the market, so the model is a touch more optimistic.
Several factors explain the number: #8 vs #26 (better ranked); 3-1 in favor; model 65% vs market 52% → 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 65%, 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 35 out of every 100 times Fokina 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.
