Crossword Genius

Victor gets western part of target (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

winner

'victor' is the definition.
(I know that victor can be written as winner)

'western part of target' is the wordplay.
'western' becomes 'w'.
'part of target' becomes 'inner' (I've seen this before).
'w'+'inner'='WINNER'

'gets' is the link.

(Other definitions for winner that I've seen before include "Champion" , "Victor" , "film director" , "The champ" , "Top player" .)
