Drains of strength (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

saps

'drains of strength' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for saps that I've seen before include "trenches" , "Enervates in spas" , "Pass around foolish people" , "Vital juices" , "Weakens, undermines" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post, the USA Today, the Newsday.com, The New York Times, the L.A. Times Daily and the Universal.
