Coming before (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

preceding

'coming before' is the definition.
('precede' can be a synonym of 'come before')

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for preceding that I've seen before include "Coming/going before" , "Coming before" , "earlier" .)

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