Colin Montgomerie, captain in 2010,, external has been linked, but McIlroy tweeted: , external"RC captaincy should be a one-time thing.
"Everybody deserving gets their chance and moves on."
McIlroy's tweet continued: "Would love to play under Paul McGinley in '14."
It is not the first time Northern Irishman McIlroy has gone public with his support for McGinley.

Darren Clarke has also been linked with the captaincy in 2014, but the 2011 Open Champion admitted recently that "this may not be my time".
