Drunk; tense (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tight

I believe this is a double definition.

'drunk' is the first definition.
(slang term)

'tense' is the second definition.
(similar in meaning)

(Other definitions for tight that I've seen before include "reluctant to buy a round?" , "Mean; tipsy" , "Drunk; giving little room" , "Close - drunk" , "Drunk - under control" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
