Pick on (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tease

'pick on' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for tease that I've seen before include "Playfully provoke" , "Comb to remove tangles and open out the fibres" , "Irritate playfully" , "Comb or card (wool)" , "Gently mock" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today and the Penny Press.
