Trophy and badge for sex god (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cupid

'sex god' is the definition.
(Roman god)

'trophy and badge' is the wordplay.
'trophy' becomes 'cup' (cup is a kind of trophy).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'badge' becomes 'id' (ID is an example).
'cup'+'id'='CUPID'

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for cupid that I've seen before include "Tiny archer as Roman god of love" , "Love-god" , "boy carrying offensive weapon" , "armed youth" , "One killed for religion" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
