220-yard run with golf shot (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

furlong

'220-yard' is the definition.
(a furlong is 220 yards)

'run with golf shot' is the wordplay.
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'shot' is an anagram indicator.
'run'+'golf'='rungolf'
'rungolf' anagrammed gives 'FURLONG'.

(Other definitions for furlong that I've seen before include "Imperial unit of length, an eighth of a mile" , "One-eight of a mile" , "Measure of length" , "220 yards" , "Measure of distance" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
