Was defeated (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lost

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">was defeated</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for lost that I've seen before include "Not recognising one's whereabouts" , "Unable to find one's way" , "TV show" , "at sea" , "Forgotten; misplaced" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and The Mirror.
