Golf Code - Unexpected Identifier

JavaScript
1

I’m stuck here. Where did I go wrong? Please I badly need your help

Your code so far

function golfScore(par, strokes) {
  // Only change code below this line
  if (strokes === 1) {
    return "Hole-in-one";
  } else if (strokes <= par - 2) {
    return "Eagle";
  } else if (stokes == par - 1) {
    return "Birdie";
  } else if (strokes == par) {
    return "Par";
  } else if (strokes par + 1) {
    return "Bogey";
  } else if (strokes par + 2) {
    return "Double Bogey";
  } else if (strokes >= par + 3) {
    return "Go Home"; 
  } else {
  return "Change Me";
  // Only change code above this line
}

// Change these values to test
golfScore(4, 1);

That line is a syntax error, you’re missing a comparison operator.

“unexpected identifier” is most often an error resulting in missing or misplaced parentheses, brackets, or braces. Check and make sure that every opening { has a matching } in the right place.

Oh I missed one bracket. Thanks btw!
