New here. I use this 5-word solution that attempts to use all the letters on the board leaving you one shot with all the letters:

Swath, dying, frets, jumps, block

CIGAR → Not the letters I would have chosen first, so a good start, in a way. But now I’m going to have to find words with them… This pair reminds me of an -ING ending so I’ll try
DYING → Not much help, but at least I placed the I. I can try one more WoFcon (and two more vowels) with
GUILE → Hmm. ?GIE? gets me nowhere. EGI?? the same. If I try ?EIG?, tack an H on the end and it’s not NEIGH so
WEIGH

My intermediate guesses were 17/102, top 1/6th of possibles, and 4/26, so not bad per Scoredle. Left me with a tap-in for par. unless I doubled up on the new terminal letter guessed. Scoredle leaves just 10 possibles after its second guess, three of which were valid, and sinks the birdie putt.

I can never remember whether “to renege on a debt” is WELSH or WELCH. Turns out… it’s both! Huh.
In any case, one eliminated the other, and only WEIGH remained for the tap-in par.
