One defeated (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

loser

'one defeated' is the definition.

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for loser that I've seen before include "One who is (always) unsuccessful" , "Defeated person" , "Person who's a failure" , "Failed competitor" , "one plays without success" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph and the Sydney Morning Herald.
