Sports Puzzle: Guess the Themes
United KingdomThu May 14 2026
A new daily brain‑teaser has been released by a sports news site that is part of a major newspaper. The challenge comes in four colour‑coded groups, each with its own theme that players must identify from a list of clues. The puzzle is available for free on the site’s own app and website, but it does not show up in the main newspaper’s game app.
The yellow clues are simple: they all point to activities that involve fighting, such as boxing, judo, taekwondo and wrestling. The green set focuses on a different sport entirely; the words relate to basketball passes, with options like baseball (a type of pass), bounce, chest and overhead.
The blue clues shift to golf: the answers are association, golf, ladies and professional, all terms that fit within the LPGA context. Finally, the purple group brings in baseball again, but this time it names players from a specific team: Alonso, Baz, Beavers and Mayo.
The puzzle’s difficulty ranges from easy to tricky, with the yellow group being the simplest and the purple group offering a real challenge. Players who enjoy sports trivia will find this edition especially engaging, and the free online option makes it accessible to a wide audience.
