Top player (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hotshot

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">top player</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for hotshot that I've seen before include "Important person" , "Showily successful person" , "successful type?" , "Top player" , "ace" .)

I've seen this clue in the L.A. Times Daily, the Newsday.com, The Washington Post, The Sun, The Guardian and the LA Times.
