Tired and broken (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shattered

This clue is a double definition.

'tired' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'broken' is the second definition.
(shattering is a kind of breaking)

'and' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for shattered that I've seen before include "Broken into many pieces" , "Broke violently into small pieces" , "Completely broken" , "Broken - exhausted (informal)" , "bust" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
