Yank, tug (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pull

This clue is a double definition.

'yank' is the first definition.
(I know that yank is a more specific form of the action pull)

'tug' is the second definition.
(I know that tug is a more specific form of the action pull)

(Other definitions for pull that I've seen before include "Influence; draw" , "Influence; haul on" , "Damage (a muscle)" , "Attract as a customer" , "Tell that to the marines" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
