Figures on the golf course (3)
I believe the answer is:
par
This clue could be a double definition.
'figures on the golf' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both related to competing as well as being verbs in their base form.
I also know that 'golf' relates to this answer.
'course' is the second definition.
I know that 'course' relates to this answer. I also know that both the answer and definition are singular nouns
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for par that I've seen before include "Average or even, as for the course" , "Rap for being average" , "Normal level or standard" , "average degree" , "Accepted standard" .)
