"Game, —, match!” (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

set

I believe this is a double definition.

'game' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'match' is the second definition.
(I know that match is a more specific form of the action set)

(Other definitions for set that I've seen before include "Place - become rigid - adjust - group of tennis games - fixed - clique - fall beneath the horizon" , "Mount (gem); scenery" , "Put down the group of games" , "Badger's burrow" , "Put down tennis games" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today, the LA Times, the King Feature Syndicate and the Universal.
