The Athletic launches Strands: Sports Edition daily puzzle game

Original: Welcome to Strands: Sports Edition, The Athletic’s newest daily game

The Athletic, the sports outlet owned by The New York Times, has launched Strands: Sports Edition, a new daily word puzzle with a sports theme. The game follows the format of the Times' popular Strands puzzle but is built around sports vocabulary and trivia. It joins a growing lineup of daily games the company uses to keep readers coming back each day.

Why now: The New York Times Company has had major success with daily games like Wordle and Connections, so a new sports-themed puzzle for The Athletic draws wide attention from puzzle and sports fans.
