Bow (out) (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

'bow out' is the definition.
(bow out can mean to retire or leave something)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for retire that I've seen before include "Give up the job and go to bed" , "Stop climbing the ladder" , "Stop working permanently" , "Pull back" , "Give up working and go to bed" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
