Badly wounded by a penetrating object (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gored

(Other definitions for gored that I've seen before include "Pierced with horn or tusk" , "Pierced - blush (can be 5 or 2,3)" , "Injured by a horn or tusk" , "Wounded by a bull" , "Stabbed with a horn/tusk" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
