Three Sportsman


Left: Tom, yellow, 5;
Middle: Jim, red, 7;
Right: Sam, blue, 6.

From clue 4, the red suit's number must be greater than Sam's number, and must be odd. By trial and error, the possible combinations are (3,2), (5,4), (7,3), (7,6).
From clue 1, the square can only be 324 or 576, where 3 or 7 is the red suit's number.
From clue 3, the square must be 576, and 5 is the yellow suit's number and 6 the blue one.
From clue 2, Tom must be the 5 and Jim the 7.
