Leander got her love (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hero

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'leander' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'her love' is the wordplay.
'love' becomes 'o' (In tennis, 'love' means 'zero').
'her'+'o'='HERO'

'got' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for hero that I've seen before include "Lamp-lighting lover" , "Star" , "Man of valour" , "One shows exceptional courage" , "Main protagonist" .)
