CLINCHED means "secured in place", therfore "assured" or guaranteed to produce the desired result, e.g. "The boxers were clinched together." (arms locked) or "Our team clinched the title. (would surely win)" The origin of "clinched" is the bending of a nail point that has penetrated a board, so that the nail cannot easily pull out of the board.
