Crossword Genius

Pretty good ball or tee shot (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tolerable

'pretty good' is the definition.

'ball or tee shot' is the wordplay.
'shot' indicates anagramming the letters.
'ball'+'or'+'tee'='ballortee'
'ballortee' anagrammed gives 'TOLERABLE'.

(Other definitions for tolerable that I've seen before include "Passable" , "Fairly good" , "Fair" , "Adequate" , "Bearable" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
