Eagerness (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

alacrity

'eagerness' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for alacrity that I've seen before include "'Quick, cheerful enthusiasm (8)'" , "Eagerness, enthusiasm" , "prompt response" , "Showing brisk readiness" , "Expedition" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, the Sydney Morning Herald and The Times.
