Ready and willing for tennis? (4)
I believe the answer is:
game
I believe this is a triple definition!
'ready' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)
'and' is a link.
'willing' is the second definition.
(game can mean willing to do something)
'for' is a link.
'tennis?' is the third definition.
(tennis is a kind of game)
(Other definitions for game that I've seen before include "venison, say" , "See 3" , "Eager; pastime" , "See 8" , "Spirited" .)
