Details
We view Maja Chwalinska as the value side. Her career record (559-507) and long experience across all surfaces contrast sharply with Darja Semenistaja's limited sample (31 matches, 10-21). The market prices the home win at 1.806 (implied ~55.4%) but, based on experience, career win-rate dichotomy and Semenistaja's poor overall record and limited match exposure, we estimate Chwalinska's true win probability around 60%. At that probability the fair decimal price is ~1.667, making the available 1.806 a positive EV opportunity. We recognize uncertainty from incomplete surface/H2H details and tournament-specific form, so our estimate is conservative.
Key factors
- • Large experience and superior career win rate for Chwalinska (559-507) versus Semenistaja's small sample and losing record (10-21)
- • Market-implied probability (1.806 => ~55.4%) is below our estimated true probability (60%), creating value
- • Uncertainty around surface and head-to-head increases variance but we used a conservative probability estimate
