Heading for championship? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

title

I believe this is a double definition.

'heading' is the first definition.
(I know that title is a type of heading)

'championship?' is the second definition.
(a championship is a sporting title)

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for title that I've seen before include "Book's name" , "Deed showing legal right to a property" , "Form of address - name" , "Distinctive name" , "Rank < deed" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
