Polite chap (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gent

'polite chap' is the definition.
(a gentleman)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for gent that I've seen before include "Man of good standing (informal)" , "Toff" , "Informal and short man" , "cove" , "bloke" .)

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