Crossword Genius

Love enormous Greek character (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

omega

'greek character' is the definition.
(letter from the Greek alphabet)

'love enormous' is the wordplay.
'love' becomes 'o' (love means zero in tennis).
'enormous' becomes 'mega ' (I've seen this before).
'o'+'mega'='OMEGA'

(Other definitions for omega that I've seen before include ""The Alpha and the ___"" , "long letter" , "Last (Gk. letter)" , "Greek character symbolizing resistance" , "24th Greek letter" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
