Game with mallets (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

polo

'game with mallets' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for polo that I've seen before include "Oriental visitor < ? Sucker having a hole" , "Horsey ball game" , "Horseback sport" , "Game played on horseback wielding mallets" , "Game played on horses or in water" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal and The Times.
