Contest in which the winners pull away (3-2-3)
I believe the answer is:
tug-of-war
This clue could be a double definition.
'contest in which the winners' is the first definition.
'tug of war' can be an answer for 'contest' (I've seen this before). I am not sure about the rest of the definition.
'pull away' is the second definition.
'tug-of-war' can be an answer for 'pull' (thesaurus). I am not sure about the 'away' bit.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tug-of-war that I've seen before include "Pulling contest" , "Sporting test of strength" , "Contest of strength" .)
