Lack young woman (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

miss

This clue is a double definition.

'lack' is the first definition.
('miss' can be a synonym of 'lack')

'young woman' is the second definition.
('miss' can be a synonym of 'young woman')

(Other definitions for miss that I've seen before include "Fail to perceive" , "Fail to get" , "Fail to hit; girl" , "Fail to hear" , "Teacher" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
