Male monarch (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

king

'male monarch' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for king that I've seen before include "Court card" , "Playing card" , "Recipient of 10 21 [VELODROME GOLD]" , "Senior royal" , "as Solomon was" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror, the Newsday and The Telegraph.
