Whips (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lashes

'whips' is the definition.
('lash' can be a synonym of 'whip')

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for lashes that I've seen before include "Strikes with a whip" , "Blows delivered with a whip" , "Eyeshades for punishments" , "Punitive strokes of a whip" , "on the lid" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and the Evening Standard.
