Urged bravery in final (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

encouraged

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

'bravery in final' is the wordplay.
'bravery' becomes 'courage' ('courage' can be a synonym of 'bravery').
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'final' becomes 'end' ('end' can be a synonym of 'final').
'courage' placed into 'end' is 'ENCOURAGED'.

(Other definitions for encouraged that I've seen before include "Heartened" , "helped" , "Inspired with confidence" , "Urged" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
