Nurse virtually wrong about game (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tennis

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'game' is the definition.
(tennis is a game)

'nurse virtually wrong' is the wordplay.
'nurse' becomes 'tend' (tend can mean to nurse or look after).
'virtually' means to remove the last letter (virtually all of the word).
'wrong' becomes 'nis' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'tend' with its last letter removed is 'ten'.
'ten'+'nis'='TENNIS'

'about' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tennis that I've seen before include "Evil trap set up for game" , "Sport with grand slams?" , "Pete Sampras's game" , "Ball-game" , "Game played with racquets" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
