Compare the inside of GAUZE
Ignore the already-proven G and E while measuring new information. The middle of GAUZE contributes A, U, and Z. Compare those interior letters with the same positions in the other answers; one yellow or gray clue there can settle a 19-word shortlist quickly.
GAUZE fits both edges, but that only settles two squares. Its interior A, U, and Z must still match the exact positions and letter quantities shown in your round.
