Cause annoyance (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rankle

'cause annoyance' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for rankle that I've seen before include "get up your nose" , "Continue vexing" , "Nag" , "Gnaw away at" , "Irritate for a long time" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
