Alternative or option to turn to (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

recourse

(Other definitions for recourse that I've seen before include "Help; option" , "Legal right to demand payment" , "A source of help, like resource" , "Resource as a means of help" , "Facility" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
