Estoril Open, Qualification: Kyrian Jacquet vs Taro Daniel

Platform comparison

Market context

Kyrian Jacquet has already lost his qualification match against Taro Daniel at the Estoril Open, with the Frenchman falling 1–2 in sets on Sunday, 19 July 2026. The match was completed at 11:00 local time, confirming Daniel’s advancement and rendering the YES outcome for Jacquet impossible. This real-world result explains the current crowd-implied probability of 0% for Jacquet winning the market.

Historically, prediction markets on tennis matches that have already concluded resolve swiftly to the factual outcome, with probabilities collapsing to zero once the result is confirmed by official sources. Comparable cases from ATP qualification rounds show that markets do not retain speculative value post-match, even if settlement windows remain open for administrative reasons. The 0% probability here aligns with standard market behaviour after a definitive loss.

Traders should monitor the official ATP match report and 365Scores confirmation, which both confirm Daniel’s victory as the final result [1]. No further catalysts—such as schedule changes, declarations, or delays—apply, as the match is completed. The market leans entirely on this settled fact, with the 50-50 tie clause irrelevant given the match was played and finished. Settlement will reflect Daniel’s advancement without ambiguity.
