Wordle "Golf" tournament, 9/6 - 9/23

Need today’s sportchampps and quaker

I don't know how people got that in less than 5.  At least one admitted they read the board beforehand and adjusted their strategy.  Sort of like playing the ladies tees while others are playing the tips.

I thought this one was pretty easy. After two guess I had the 3 middle letters and could only think of 3 words that it could possibly be.

Same, but 4. But you definitely had to have 2 solid guesses.

Agreed my starter word was clutch today.

Parse was my second guess. I don’t really know why I was leaning P. But I needed to get an e and s in, knowing the a was used somewhere. Parse just popped into my head. Thought I had it in 2 for a second.

My first word is “strep” about 3 of 5 days. Would’ve had a 2 or 3, but went with purer over parer for it so would’ve been a 3.

My second word was ANGER and I was feeling good about a 4, maybe a 3.

CAPER, PAYER, PAVER, PAPER

You were pretty much screwed if you didn't have that middle R, because it's a rare word and who's guessing another R with all the other choices left?

Not sure if they are on the official list, but wordle also would have accepted PAWER and PALER.  So basically I had a 50% chance with 3 guesses on 6 possibilities.

Blah
