Top player (7)

I believe the answer is:

hotshot

'top player' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for hotshot that I've seen before include "Important person" , "Showily successful person" , "successful type?" , "Top player" , "ace" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, The Washington Post, The Guardian, the L.A. Times Daily and the Newsday.com.
