Country golf club welcoming wife (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rwanda

'country' is the definition.
(I know that Rwanda is or was a African country)

'golf club welcoming wife' is the wordplay.
'golf club' becomes 'randa' (I've seen this in other clues).
'welcoming' indicates putting letters inside (in sense of 'inviting in').
'wife' becomes 'w' (abbreviation).
'randa' enclosing 'w' is 'RWANDA'.

(Other definitions for rwanda that I've seen before include "Central African country" , "African republic" , "Republic in central Africa" , "Kigali's country" , "Language" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
