Can anyone please enlighten me about the clue 'nine makes spilling teas a hazard' answer = asterisk (anag of teas= aste + risk =hazard). What is the significance of 'nine'? I can't figure out how that part of the clue is supposed to work.

Thanks!

only thing I can find is in US Open golf those golfers with an * did back nine holes first thus starting at hole10 to save time but seems a bit obscure?

Thanks Ricker - yes maybe a bit obscure ( for someone like me who didn't follow the open!), but it seems kind of logical. More so than my original thought that perhaps on some keyboards shifting the numeral 9 key would give an asterisk - it seems asterisks are on the shift+8 on all keyboards.
Thanks for your help!
does clue number nine have a connection?
