Endure being the ultimate loser (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

last

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'endure' is the first definition.
(I know this)

'the ultimate loser' is the second definition.
(last place)

'being' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for last that I've seen before include "` `The cobler should stick to his ....' '" , "part of Oxford's restoration with this?" , "model for a leprechaun" , "Piece of cobbler's equipment" , "stay at the back" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
