Entertaining pair open country clubs, shrouded by uncertainty (6,3)

I believe the answer is:

double act

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'entertaining pair' is the definition.
'double act' can be an answer for 'pair' (I have seen 'Comic pair ' mean 'double act' so perhaps 'pair' could also mean 'double act'). I am not sure about the 'entertaining' bit.

'open country clubs shrouded by uncertainty' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'country' could be 'lea' (I've seen this before) and 'lea' is present in the answer.
'clubs' could be 'c' (abbreviation used in card games such as bridge) and 'c' is found within the answer.
'uncertainty' could be 'doubt' (synonyms) and 'doubt' is found within the remaining letters.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for double act that I've seen before include "Performance by a pair" , "What has four legs and makes us laugh" , "Funny man and stooge, perhaps" , "What was Hardy into" , "Duo performance" .)
