Click here for today's Connections hints, as well as our daily answers and hints for The New York Times Mini Crossword, Wordle and Strands puzzles. Connections: Sports Edition covers one of my favorite sports today -- bowling.

Connections: Sports Edition is The Athletic ’s first-ever game, and, after sharing it daily in a beta test the past few months, we’re officially launching the game as a daily fixture of our coverage. The game is free to play here, and you can also find the link to play in The Athletic app.
