Works hard for (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

earns

'works hard for' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for earns that I've seen before include "Merits through work" , "Grosses" , "makes money" , "Gains by work" , "Works for pay" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday, the Newsday.com, the Universal, the Wall Street Journal and the LA Times.
