Doctor without racket reportedly rents sports gear (6,8)
I believe the answer is:
riding breeches
'doctor' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I cannot see how one could define the other.
'without racket reportedly rents sports gear' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'racket' could be 'din' (both can mean a loud noise or disturbance) and 'din' is present in the answer.
'reportedly' could be 'e' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'e' is located in the answer.
'gear' could be 'rig' (rig is a kind of gear) and 'rig' is located in the remaining letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for riding breeches that I've seen before include "Feature of a male habit" , "Up gear" .)
