Whence to drive a fair way (3)
I believe the answer is:
tee
This might be a double definition.
'whence to drive' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'a fair way?' is the second definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I don't see?
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for tee that I've seen before include "Golfing support" , "Where a hole starts" , "Golfer drives from it" , "Part of course" , "support of leisure activity" .)
