Ryder Cup captain's pick Thomas Pieters is a total savage on Twitter, where even his sister isn't safe
You might know Thomas Pieters as that guy whose hair the PGA Tour photoshopped. You probably know him more for nearly winning an Olympics bronze medal (he's the dude Johnny Miller was swooning over in Rio) and being named one of Darren Clarke's three captain's picks for the European Ryder Cup team on Tuesday. But you should know this: Pieters is a funny dude -- and he's a savage on Twitter.
The 24-year-old Belgium has a great sense of humor and isn't afraid to dish out humorous jabs on social media. Not even his own sister is safe.
Dagger! C'mon, sis, Pieters has three European Tour wins following his latest victory at last week's Made In Denmark, and there's a good chance we're going to see a lot more in the future from the World No. 41 (and quickly rising). We can also expect more snappy tweets like this from the University of Illinois product:

From an entertainment standpoint, Darren Clarke couldn't have chosen any better.
