Details
The market prices Margaux Rouvroy at 1.141 (implied win probability ≈ 87.6%). Our assessment, given the available data, places Rouvroy's true win probability substantially lower — around 80% — because her career record is 10-21 (31 matches), recent form shows multiple recent losses on hard and clay, and we have no performance or ranking information for Seda Baslilar to justify such a heavy market skew. Using our probability (0.80) the fair decimal price is 1.25 (1 / 0.80). At the current price of 1.141 the expected value is negative (EV = 0.80 * 1.141 - 1 = -0.087), so there is no value in backing the heavy favorite. Without evidence that Baslilar is significantly inferior (injury, ranking gap, or very poor form), we cannot justify taking the shortprice favorite; therefore we recommend no bet.
Key factors
- • Rouvroy career record 10-21 over 31 matches indicates modest performance at ITF/Challenger levels
- • Recent results show multiple losses on hard and clay, suggesting current form is not dominant
- • No available data on Seda Baslilar in the provided research — unknown opponent risk makes the short price unattractive
