Sharp pull (4)

Ross

I think it could be either:

jerk

yank

(Other definitions for yank that I've seen before include "Pull roughly" , "Pull with a sudden movement" , "American from the North" , "Pull sharply" , "sudden 24D [DRAW] ?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard, The Mirror, The Sun and The Telegraph.
