Demon golfer gets urges (6)
I believe the answer is:
impels
'urges' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'demon golfer' is the wordplay.
'demon' becomes 'imp' (I've seen this in other clues).
'golfer' becomes 'els' (Ernie Els - former number one professional golfer).
'imp'+'els'='IMPELS'
'gets' is the link.
(Other definitions for impels that I've seen before include "Spurs" , "Drives or forces" , "Urges or drives to do something" , "Urges forward" , "Drives on in simple way" .)
