PR is the shortest of the R blends by word supply, and like the others it fills two positions with consonants. A player who confirms it holds no vowel yet, so the third letter is what removes candidates from the 5 letter words starting with PR.
O takes that position more often than I or E. Proud, Prove, Print and Price cover the two leading patterns, and very few letters ever follow PR at all, which keeps the guessing narrower here than after most pairs.
There are 99 five letter words starting with PR. Price, Prime, Proud, Prove and Print are the strongest Wordle guesses because none of them repeat a letter. PRO and PRI hold the deepest runs, so test O and I in the third slot first.
