Wimbledon's Spaniards? (4)
I believe the answer is:
dons
'spaniards?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'wimbledon's' is the wordplay.
'DONS' is hidden within the letters.
But, I am not sure how this is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for dons that I've seen before include "Puts on -- lecturers" , "University teachers - Mafia bosses" , "Assumes" , "British university teachers and Spanish noblemen" , "Academics" .)
