Week in picks — July 6–12, 2026
A workmanlike week: 61-43, 58.7%, across 104 graded picks (tennis 59-36, UFC 2-7). Nothing flashy.
Adam Walton at 50% in Adam Walton vs. Alex Michelsen. The market had the other side; we published the upset call anyway, and it landed.
Sebastian Ofner at 63% in Daniel Rincon vs. Sebastian Ofner. It lost. It stays on the record like everything else we publish.
Tennis
