Illegal ticket seller (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tout

'illegal ticket seller' is the definition.
(as in a ticket tout)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for tout that I've seen before include "Try to sell in a direct manner" , "Profiting ticket seller" , "Seek business in a direct manner" , "Solicit custom brazenly" , "Peddle; ticket seller" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
