'suitors' is the definition.
('wooer' can be a synonym of 'suitor')

'worse difficulties about ring' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'ring' could be 'o' (letter resembling a ring) and 'o' is present in the answer.
an anagram of 'worse' is 'woers' which is located in the left over letters.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'have' acts as a link.
