Native of the country whose national sport is oil wrestling (4)

I believe the answer is:

turk

(Other definitions for turk that I've seen before include "Someone from Istanbul" , "Person from W.Asia/S.E. Europe republic" , "Resident of Ankara maybe" , "Native of Izmir, perhaps" , "One from Izmir" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
