'glosses' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with creating things as well as being verbs in their -s form.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'title held by golfer' is the wordplay.
'title' becomes 'name' (I've seen this before).
'held by' is an insertion indicator.
'golfer' becomes 'els' (Ernie Els - former number one professional golfer).
'name' put inside 'els' is 'ENAMELS'.

'over' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for enamels that I've seen before include "hard-wearing coats" , "coat" , "Paints" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
