If Scottie Scheffler finishes in the top 5 (including ties) in the 2026 Masters Tournament, then the market resolves to Yes.
Confidence: none
Model: claude-sonnet-4-6
Screened: 2026-04-07T08:05:44Z
Reasoning: Finishing top 5 overall does not necessitate being the top US golfer (another US golfer could finish higher). Being the top US golfer does not necessitate a top 5 finish (the best US golfer could finish 10th, for example). No logical necessity in either direction.
Strategy: Buy NO on antecedent + YES on consequent
