Large omen about single swimmer (9)
I believe the answer is:
lemonsole
'swimmer' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.
'large omen about single' is the wordplay.
'large' becomes 'L' (eg in clothes sizes).
'about' indicates an anagram.
'single' becomes 'sole' (similar in meaning).
'omen' is an anagram of 'emon'.
'l'+'emon'+'sole'='LEMONSOLE'
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
