Article describes excellent case for sport (4,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

thai boxing

'sport' is the definition.

'article describes excellent case' is the wordplay.
'article' becomes 'thing' (I've seen this before).
'describes' indicates putting letters inside (describe can mean to form the outline of).
'excellent' becomes 'ai'.
'case' becomes 'box' (boxing is a kind of casing).
'ai'+'box'='aibox'
'thing' going around 'aibox' is 'THAI BOXING'.

'for' is the link.

(Another definition for thai boxing that I've seen is " form of combat".)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
