Your letters are all correct, Try another word wizard thing!

Thanks Chrisg I would never have got that

Leapy, I wasn't being unhelpful - I answered the question you asked!

12a:
micromanagement is "man" ((guy) in an anagram of "memo creating"= close control (def)

I have the answer for this one, but can't see any of the parsing - any hints?

20 Park in New York, driving with difficulty in street (8,7)

(My answer would be associated with tennis)

There is a tennis centre there, yes...plus a lot of other things!
"Park in New York" is the definition.
The first word means driving out
You want a three letter for difficulty and street is a row of houses converted from stables.

Thanks elle - quite complicated for an Everyman. I missed the second word entirely.

I found this clue real tough too, Chrise! Anyhoo....
Struggling with 24 ac.
