Heart-wrenching (6)

I believe the answer is:

tragic

'heart-wrenching' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for tragic that I've seen before include "heartbreaking" , "Causing extreme distress or sorrow" , "Extremely sad; Mahler's 6th nickname" , "like King Lear" , "Calamitous, very sad" .)

I've seen this clue in the Jonesin Crosswords, the Jonesin' and the USA Today.
