Like a ball in a game of golf? (5)
I believe the answer is:
round
I believe this is a triple definition!
'like a ball' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'in' is a link.
'a game' is the second definition.
(round is a kind of game)
'of' is a link.
'golf?' is the third definition.
(I know that round is a type of golf)
(Other definitions for round that I've seen before include "A single shot" , "To the opposite position" , "Circular - stage" , "Piece of ammunition" , "Shaped like a circle" .)
