(Reuters) - Not much has gone to plan for Justin Rose in the last 18 months but the world number 16 said Thursday's opening round of 66 at the PGA Championship was a rare occasion when he got the most out of his game.

Briton Rose, who captured the U.S. Open in 2013 and gold at the Olympics three years later, has not lifted a trophy since winning the Farmers Insurance Open in San Diego last year.
