Ryder Cup Captains to Golfers: No Tweeting

Golf fans following The 2010 Ryder Cup action Friday-Sunday from The Celtic Manor Resort in Newport, Wales, shouldn’t expect to see any Twitter activity from participants, as both U.S. captain Corey Pavin and European captain Colin Montgomerie have banned Tweeting this week, AP reports.

Pavin told AP:

We have decided as a whole to not Tweet this week. It can be a little bit distracting sometimes. I think it’s important to focus on the Ryder Cup and playing the matches and just enjoying camaraderie with the team itself.
