I agree with this that it's "not really clear".

Beal is a genius. After the first match he did work on his game and it showed in later matches. From reading the book his main mistake seemed to be that he tilted a bit (correctable, maybe he should hire Tommy) and that he tended to play too long against fresh opponents.

Matches of five to six hours on his home court may favor Beal.
