Sports broadcaster in state of shock? (7)

I believe the answer is:

balding

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'sports broadcaster' is the first definition.
(Clare Balding)

'state of shock?' is the second definition.
('shock' can mean hair)

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for balding that I've seen before include "With some hair loss" , "Losing one's hair" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
