Analysis

This probability reflects market expectation that Carlos Alcaraz will not return to professional ATP competition within the next seven months. The 30% assessment suggests significant uncertainty about the Spanish player's availability through January 2027, likely driven by an undisclosed injury or medical issue requiring extended recovery time. Markets would reprice upward if Alcaraz announces a return date or participates in warm-up tournaments; prices would fall if official statements confirm prolonged absence or a more serious condition emerges. The key catalyst is any official statement from Alcaraz's team regarding his competitive timeline, which could come at any point but often follows medical clearance procedures in professional tennis.

  • Alcaraz's last known competitive appearance and any official injury announcements from his camp affect baseline expectations for recovery duration
  • Scheduled ATP tour events and Grand Slam tournaments between now and January 20, 2027 (including US Open, ATP Masters 1000 series, and year-end championships) provide natural decision points for return eligibility
  • Comparison with historical recovery timelines for similar injuries in elite tennis offers context for how long top-ranked players typically remain sidelined
  • Volume and pricing consistency across multiple resolution dates (October through January) reveal whether uncertainty is primarily about whether he returns or when he returns
  • Any appearance in lower-level qualifying events, exhibition matches, or practice tournaments would suggest accelerating readiness before official ATP competition

How we compute these odds

SimpleFunctions aggregates live prediction-market contracts from Kalshi and Polymarket. Each slug groups contracts that resolve on the same underlying event, identified by venue event_id.

For binary slugs, the headline probability is the liquidity-weighted mid-price across all bound contracts. For multi-outcome slugs (e.g. elections with 3+ candidates), the headline is the leader’s price; we never arithmetically average disjoint outcomes — that would produce a number with no real-world meaning.

Snapshots refresh every 5 minutes during market hours; daily aggregates are computed at 04:00 UTC. The 30-day sparkline is drawn from per-ticker daily means stored in market_indicator_daily; 24h delta and movement events are derived from the same source.
