Dodged, escaped (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eluded

This clue is a double definition.

'dodged' is the first definition.
('elude' can be a synonym of 'dodge')

'escaped' is the second definition.
('elude' can be a synonym of 'escape')

(Other definitions for eluded that I've seen before include "Delude, having escaped capture" , "Escaped by stratagem" , "Dodged, avoided" , "Evaded" , "Escaped skilfully from, avoided" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
