Make rough (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

coarsen

'make rough' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for coarsen that I've seen before include "Turn rough" , "Dull" , "Make rough or crude" , "Make more harsh" , "become inferior" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and the King Feature Syndicate.
