Ready and willing for tennis? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

game

I believe this is a triple definition!

'ready' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'and' is a link.

'willing' is the second definition.
(game can mean willing to do something)

'for' is a link.

'tennis?' is the third definition.
(tennis is a kind of game)

(Other definitions for game that I've seen before include "venison, say" , "See 3" , "Eager; pastime" , "See 8" , "Spirited" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
