TENNISmatch edge tight matches

1.1 & 1.1 TB

Both men play tight matches: Stan Wawrinka has averaged 1.10 tiebreak sets a match across 10, and Matteo Berrettini 1.10 across 10. Two players who each drag sets to a tiebreak more often than not is a strong prior for a long match, and it is a claim about the SHAPE of the match rather than the winner — it reads through to total games, not to a side. Neither a ranking nor a win-loss record contains it.
