Year-to-year movement shows where the market should update fastest. The Indoors edge vs Clay floor and the year table are the primary form anchors for live pricing — not a single career average.

Tournament tier: reliability by event level

Tournament level	Matches	Win rate
ATP 250	31	67.7%
ATP 500	26	61.5%
Masters 1000	33	57.6%
Grand Slam	25	56.0%

Grand Slam and Masters samples matter most for pricing top-20 players; ATP 250/500 volume can inflate or deflate the headline win rate. Cross-check against Rafael Jodar or Brandon Nakashima for peer archetypes.

Round-by-round: early rounds vs deep runs

Round	Matches	Win rate
R1	37	62.2%
R2	20	65.0%
R3	11	72.7%
R16	22	54.5%
QF	12	41.7%
SF	6	66.7%
F	4	75.0%

Round curves separate true closers from early-round specialists. Use the drop from early rounds into deeper stages as a fade signal even when the overall win rate looks elite — the same structural idea as Rublev's late-round ceiling.

H2H against elite rivals

Rival	W–L	Win rate
Norrie	3–1	75.0%
Medvedev	3–1	75.0%
Michelsen	1–3	25.0%
Kecmanovic	2–1	66.7%
Tiafoe	1–2	33.3%

Elite H2H is the matchup modifier on top of surface form. Prefer rows with multiple meetings; single-sample rivalries are noise.

How our model treats Learner Tien

The ensemble weights surface win-rate history, recent form (last 5 / last 10), and tournament-tier context most heavily for a top-20 profile like this. Favourite/underdog conversion is a strong secondary prior when odds history is dense (here: 55 matches with usable prices). Uncertainty rises when the next match is on clay or in a deep-draw round where Tien's historical conversion collapses.
