Lynn:

I don't see that Ron was singled out as having
difficulties with it.  It seems many in the the
class couldn't resist it either, all those that
came before Harry.  What's said is the Ron had
much more difficulty than Harry.  (GoF, p. 205,
UK)  Therefore, Ron may have done better than
others in the class, just not as good as Harry. 
I, too, find it interesting that Hermione isn't
mentioned with relation to how well she was able
to deal with it.
