Hmm. I have a feeling I won’t recognize his name when I see it.

The French tennis pro is Yannick Noah. Correct on the other two - for the violinist I was shooting for Yehudi Menuhin, Perlman is more commonly known as Itzhak but as it’s basically the same name I’ll give you credit for it.

DQ: Lead singer of a band?

Before this round ends, I’d like to suggest that after “Z” we return to the Freestyle approach. We’ve just gone through the alphabet twice, and I’d like to play it the other way for awhile.
