Title: LAT Mon. 6/22 Donna S. Levin
Post by: magus on June 22, 2009, 11:40:36 AM
It's a propos to have a Wimbledon theme today, but SILVERTEASET and PERFECTMATCH are the only entries related to WIMBLEDON.  In this, the puzzle comes up a bit short.  It didn't have to, though.  For ACES Donna has "Best poker pair."  But in tennis, aces are perfect serves.  For REDO Donna has "Make over, but a let in tennis is a redo, and the clue could have been something like "Let over a net result."

The grid could easily be changed in the lowest right corner to get NET in the puzzle.
