Polo alternatives crossword clue

48 Across · WSJ Crossword, June 25, 2026 · 4 letters

Answer

TEES

TEES (4 letters)

Explanation

The answer to “Polo alternatives” is TEES. It appears as 48 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of June 25, 2026, a Thursday puzzle titled “As a Rule” by Jake Halperin, and it fills 4 squares running left to right from row 11, column 4 of the 15×15 grid.

A plural clue takes a plural answer, which is why the entry ends in S. The entry begins with T and ends with S, and contains 2 vowels and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Thursday puzzles lean harder on misdirection, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
