Crossword Genius

Success at twenty? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

score

This clue is a double definition.

'success' is the first definition.
(score is a kind of success)

'twenty?' is the second definition.
('score' can be a synonym of 'twenty')

'at' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for score that I've seen before include "Deeply scratch" , "Tally; group of twenty" , "Notch; twenty" , "Gain a point (20 of them?)" , "Shoot a goal for a twenty" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
