new yorker

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

'which yank' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'fresh but difficult delivery?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'fresh' could be 'new' (synonyms) and 'new' is found in the answer.
'delivery?' could be 'yorker' (type of cricket delivery) and 'yorker' is found within the answer.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'displays' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
