Crossword Genius

Bend down, getting no runs (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

duck

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'bend down' is the first definition.

'no runs' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

'getting' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for duck that I've seen before include "See 16" , "nothing" , "strong cloth" , "sails material" , "What represents zero score" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
