Comes closer (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nears

'comes closer' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for nears that I've seen before include "advances" , "Bears down" , "Draws close" , "Comes closer" , "Saner (anag.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, The Star Tribune and The Wall Street Journal.
