Yeah, the heavyweights can be tough. :(

1. LINKED (best: KNOLLED)
2. FURTHER
3. 980 = (50*100 - 75 - 25)/(4 + 1) [1 off]
4. RAPIERS
5. NOTCHES
6. 510 = (5 + 1 + 1)*75 - 3*5
7. COURTING
8. 246 = 10*25 - 100/(75 - 50)
9. [N/A -- chosen, but the answer is PROFESSOR]

One off is the best that can be done in round 3, and essentially only in the way I found (can swap 100 and (75 + 25)).
