Shrewd or canny (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

astute

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'shrewd' is the first definition.
(I know that shrewd can be written as astute)

'canny' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

(Other definitions for astute that I've seen before include "Shrewd, wily" , "Shrewd and sagacious" , "Statue (anag)" , "Wide" , "Sharp, shrewd" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
