How this market resolves

This market refers to the tennis match between Garrett Johns and Max Purcell in the Kingston 2, originally scheduled for August 26, 2026 at 11:00AM ET. This market will resolve to "Johns" if Garrett Johns wins by 2 or more sets than Max Purcell, based on the final completed score. Otherwise, it will resolve to "Purcell." If the match begins but is not completed due to retirement, default, or disqualification, this market will resolve 50-50, unless the outcome of this market has already been unconditionally determined by the completed portion of play. For example, if the deciding set has begun when the match ends, Garrett Johns can no longer win by 2 or more sets, and this market will resolve to "Purcell." If the match is canceled before play begins, or a result has not been determined by September 9, 2026, 11:59 PM ET (14 days after the scheduled start), this market will resolve 50-50. Resolution will be based on official Challenger results.
