Writer of poems enters wrestling with one (9)
![Ross](/clue/static/ross-mug.min.png)
I believe the answer is:
sonneteer
'writer of poems' is the definition.
'enters wrestling with one' is the wordplay.
'wrestling with' is an anagram indicator.
'enters' with its letters anagrammed with 'one' makes 'SONNETEER'.
(Another definition for sonneteer that I've seen is " Poet".)
I've seen this clue in The Independent.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
