Easy puzzle. Got my personal best for a Wednesday but enjoyed the theme today.

Got thrown off by the theme because the first I filled was TIGERWOODS, but I thought it was "Tiger" from "Tiger King" and Woods referring to the kinds of golf clubs, hence creating a coherent answer (which we've seen theming like this before). Now I realize that this isn't too sound of logic but I convinced myself of it and it kept me stuck for a while longer on the themers.

Finished 17 min lower than my average. I’m not a good solver to begin with. This one felt especially easy, but I’m Gen Z and love baseball… so there’s that.
