Warning given by plump woman’s ancestor (10)

I believe the answer is:

forefather

'ancestor' is the definition.
(I know that forefather is a type of ancestor)

'warning given by plump woman's' is the wordplay.
'warning' becomes 'fore' (shouted in golf).
'given by' says to put letters next to each other.
'plump' becomes 'fat' (synonyms).
'woman's' becomes 'her' (belonging to a woman).
'fore'+'fat'+'her'='FOREFATHER'

(Another definition for forefather that I've seen is " Hamlet's rude ancestor".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
