Success in rowing (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

win

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

'in rowing' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'WIN' is hidden within 'rowing'.

(Other definitions for win that I've seen before include "Be victorious or succeed" , "Come out on top" , "Finish in first place" , "Come first" , "Succeed, conquer" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
