Success impacted (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hit

This clue is a double definition.

'success' is the first definition.
(a hit is a commercial success)

'impacted' is the second definition.
(hit can mean to impact or crash into)

(Other definitions for hit that I've seen before include "Sock" , "recording in the charts" , "skier, perhaps" , "Badly affected" , "dose of illegal drug" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
