Peter Hanson ill, pulls out of Vivendi Cup in Paris
European team member Peter Hanson has pulled out of this week's Vivendi Cup in Paris due to illness with the Ryder Cup just over a week away.
Hanson, who is due to make his Ryder Cup debut at Celtic Manor, told officials in France he would not be competing after being struck down with a head cold, chest infection and fever.
The decision to withdraw is understood to be just a precautionary move by the 32-year-old with next week's match with America in mind.
He will now return home from France, but is hopeful of being well enough to travel to Celtic Manor with the rest of the European party on Monday.
Hanson's place in the European Tour event at Golf de Joyenval has been taken by Frenchman Damien Perrier.
