Trying or distressing experience (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ordeal

(Other definitions for ordeal that I've seen before include "Prolonged suffering, difficult to endure" , "very hard test" , "A tough time in Laredo" , "A difficult or harrowing time" , "Severe or trying experience" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
