Turf out (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

eject

divot

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This could be a double definition.

'turf' is the first definition.
(I know that divot is a type of turf)

'out' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how they can define each other.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for divot that I've seen before include "Small piece of turf cut out" , "Golfer's dislodged turf" , "Turf lifted by golf club" , "Displaced grass" , "Loose piece of turf" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard, The Mirror and the Sydney Morning Herald.
