Wind up getting unfair tie rearranged (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

infuriate

'wind up' is the definition.
(wind up can mean to annoy)

'getting unfair tie rearranged' is the wordplay.
'getting' says to put letters next to each other.
'rearranged' indicates anagramming the letters.
'unfair' after 'tie' is 'tieunfair'.
'tieunfair' with letters rearranged gives 'INFURIATE'.

(Other definitions for infuriate that I've seen before include "anger" , "get very warm" , "Enrage or exasperate" , "Make someone very angry" , "incense" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
