Challenges (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dares

'challenges' is the definition.
(I know this)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for dares that I've seen before include "Makes bold, challenges" , "Has the courage to do brave or dangerous thing" , "Ventures" , "Makes bold, presumes to" , "Challenges to do something dangerous" .)

I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune, the Penny Press, the LA Times, the King Feature Syndicate, the Evening Standard and The Telegraph.
