25-second pick · +85

Amy Alcott Deep Cut

9 letters · 2 words · ~3s to type · 224 accepted answers on the sheet

Avoid the franchise or event that fills sports-bar talk. We would type Amy Alcott: Deep Cut, +85, 9 letters, about 3 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Phil Mickelson, or Rory McIlroy — those are Plankton. The trench answer is Babe Zaharias (+100), but only take it if you can spell it cold.

Trench spelling, only if you already know it: Babe Zaharias +100

Skip Arnold Palmer · Jack Nicklaus · Phil Mickelson · Rory McIlroy
