fairway

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

'where to drive a' is the definition.
The answer is a location as well as being a singular noun. This is suggested by the definition.

'decent distance' is the wordplay.
'decent' becomes 'fair' (I've seen this before).
'distance' becomes 'way' (way is a kind of distance).
'fair'+'way'='FAIRWAY'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for fairway that I've seen before include "Golf course area between tee and green" , "Part of golf course between tee and green" .)
