This clue might be a double definition.

'a good starting point' is the first definition.
'tee' can be an answer for 'point' (tee is a kind of point). I am not sure about the 'a good starting' bit.

'a drive' is the second definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'for' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tee that I've seen before include "Mark" , "Part of course" , "Golfer's starting point" , "Stand" , "Golfing equipment" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
