Today’s “Word of the Day” is “old hand” and it is a noun meaning “a person who is very experienced and skilled in a particular field of activity; expert, genius, veteran, ace, wizard, master, maestro, virtuoso”.
Example Sentence: For all that Max Verstappen ensured the opening to the new Formula One season felt very much a routine re-run of his dominant control of last year, the sport’s introduction in Bahrain was saved by its oldest hand. The Dutchman’s relentless, clinical win could not be faulted but in his wake was the verve, dash and sheer daredevilry of Fernando Alonso, claiming a mighty third place for Aston Martin and reminding everyone that even at 41 the double world champion remains gripping to watch.
