Put in an awkward situation (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cornered

(Other definitions for cornered that I've seen before include "Trapped at junction?" , "Caught in a difficult position" , "went round the bend" , "Trapped; rounded a bend" , "Monopolised the market" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
