Golfer or gaffer (7)
I believe the answer is:
foreman
This clue could be a double definition.
'golfer' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'gaffer' is the second definition.
(synonyms)
'or' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for foreman that I've seen before include "Fellow in charge" , "spokesman" , "Gaffer, boss" , "Charge hand" , "Male supervisor" .)
