I wouldn't be able to do it myself, but a lot of younger people seem to be able to text quite easily while doing other things -- they've grown up with it. I don't think that tweeting during a round would be the best thing to do (it might be distracting to the other players), although before and after are great. I suppose that it might be appropriate during wait times too. At the very least, there would need to be some respect for the other players. I wonder how long it would take for broadcasters to incorporate tweets into their broadcasts? I think that it depends on the person.

I am no pro, but I am sure it would affect my golf game. I have a feeling other golfers are going to be the same way... maybe they will tweet after they are done...I don't know. That will be an interesting statistic of the future...the affect of tweeting on the golf game. When I play golf…there is no way I could lose focus and do social media.
