How Wordle matchplay works:
A head-to-head match involves pitting your score against a named opponent on 9 Wordle games (or 'holes' if we're maintaining the golf terminology). The player with the better score wins the hole, or the hole is halved if both players have a matching score (including both failing in six turns) .
A full match comprises nine holes. If one player is, say, three holes up with two to play, that's an unassailable lead and the match is concluded as a win by '3 & 2'. If both players finish all square, the match is halved.
So, you play, you post your score, and I'll give updated scoreboards as regularly as I can so that you know where you stand in your match.
The key feature of matchplay is that the number of 'strokes'/turns on one hole is immaterial to anything else. You could lose the first hole by 6 strokes against 2, then win the next two by 4 strokes against 5, and you'd be leading by one hole.
