NYT Sports Connections: July 26, 2026 Hints and Answers

Today's Sports Connections is easier if you like fishing.

This game is a version of the New York Times word game for sports fans.

The game is about finding common threads between words. It gets trickier each day, so we have hints to help.

You can find today's puzzle answer at the end or keep reading for clues.

The New York Times and The Athletic made this game. You can play on your phone or computer.

Each puzzle has 16 words in four groups. The groups can be about books, countries, or other things.

If you get a group right, those words are removed. If not, it's a mistake. You can make four mistakes.

You can move the words around to make it easier. Each group has a color: yellow, green, blue, or purple.

Want a hint about the groups? Try these:

Yellow: Ohio

Green: Fishing

Blue: Logos

Purple: Hockey

Need more help? The groups are about these things:

Yellow: Ohio sports teams

Green: Fishing things

Blue: Baseball logos

Purple: Hockey teams
