Heading in the right direction playing links? (2,6)
I believe the answer is:
on course
'heading in the right direction' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'playing links?' is the wordplay.
'playing' becomes 'on'.
'links?' becomes 'course' (links is a kind of course).
'on'+'course'='ON COURSE'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for on course that I've seen before include "making progress as expected" , "Enrolled for series of lectures" , "Like betting" , "going the right way" , "following set route" .)
