Striped cat (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

tiger

tabby

'striped cat' is the definition.
(I know that tiger are usually striped)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for tiger that I've seen before include "___ Woods, golfer" , "Dynamic type - striped animal" , "Large wildcat poetically burning bright" , "Formidable opponent" , "- - Woods (golf)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press, the USA Today, the King Feature Syndicate, The New York Times and the Universal.
