Short retirement? (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nap

(Other definitions for nap that I've seen before include "Short raised fibres on cloth on snooker table" , "one akin to whist" , "Sleep - card game - fibres on a snooker table" , "Short sleep on fuzzy fabric surface" , "Racing tip that professes to be a certainty" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
