Was a bad winner (7)

I believe the answer is:

gloated

'was a bad winner' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for gloated that I've seen before include "Crowed" , "Relished maliciously" , "Triumphed" , "Exulted (over)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald and the New York Times.
