The adjective sense is given by M as 剛健、強勁有力
Example ~
柳公权(778年至865年)的书法则体现出骨力遒健,劲紧开阔的特点。
where 遒健 = strong; vigorous
A also has 遒美 = "forceful and graceful (of calligraphy)", for example.

There are some verb senses given by M too, which seem to approximate what our def says, but we would need to add "to" in front ~ 1 迫近 2 聚集 3 終、盡

However, NC and A don't give these verb senses, and I find it a little difficult to come across examples of verb usage. Various dicts give the example 岁忽忽而遒 ("to draw to an end" here?)

Editor: more or less in all dicts. Fuzzy if you ask me.
Diff:
- 遒 遒 [qiu2] /consolidate/end/strong/
# + 遒 遒 [qiu2] /strong/vigorous/robust/
+ 遒 遒 [qiu2] /strong/vigorous/robust/to draw near/to come to an end/
