AI Intelligence Analysis
STRONG BET +1
Clark's 1.514 SG/round total (strong) is undermined by -0.174 course fit, but he still leads Burns (1.63 effective skill). Model gives 46.22% vs. 43.1% market = 10.2% edge (tied for largest). Clark is a course specialist (strong recent form noted), making this a high-confidence bet.

- SG total: Clark 1.514 (strong), Burns 1.73 (elite OTT, 0.33 SG; balanced profile)
- Effective skill: Clark 1.34 after -0.174 course fit adjustment = 1.34 effective
- Skill gap: Clark's baseline (1.514) > Burns' effective (1.63 before adjustment), but Burns gets small positive course fit benefit (implied)
