Justin Rose has revealed one part of his game which is really annoying him at the moment.

It’s been an up-and-down 2024 thus far for the Englishman after missing three cuts in a row at the Arnold Palmer, The Players and The Masters.

However, the Englishman bounced back into form at the PGA Championship, finishing on 14 under, seven shots adrift of winner Xander Schauffele.

Rose’s finish at Valhalla was undoubtedly a positive and provides reason to be optimistic about heading to Pinehurst No.2 for the U.S. Open, a tournament the 43-year-old has enjoyed prior success.

But, despite the recent good form, Rose is far from content with where his game is currently at.

Talking on the Rick Shiels Golf Show, Rose has admitted that he is currently working as hard as he ever has done previously.

“I am working harder than I have ever worked,” Rose explained. “Which is kind of annoying as I’m 43; you would think you would have things figured out. It’s like, why is this feeling more difficult than ever?”

The 2013 U.S. Open winner added: “I feel like I am needing more access to my body in order to play well; that doesn’t get any easier, so the discipline around staying fit, sharp and recovered and healthy and moving well are more of a time drain than the used to be. And then my life has changed a lot, living back in England, so a lot more travel.”

Can Justin Rose roll back the years at the U.S. Open?

The U.S. Open, typically, is the year’s toughest major championship and an event Rose knows how to win.

Those who are mentally strong and able to avoid any significant drama tend to come out on top.

And after the Englishman’s performance at Valhalla, a resurgent Rose could compete in the year’s third major championship.

With Schauffele, Bryson DeChambeau and Scottie Scheffler dominating the top of the game, a veteran – like Rose – making a play at Pinehurst is needed.

It wasn’t too long ago that the Englishman, along with Jason Day, Adam Scott and Martin Kaymer, were the names competing in every single major.

Although unlikely, witnessing one of the names of yesteryear giving the current world’s top ten something to think about would be pretty special.
