Golf fans react as player sticks all his balls in the dishwasher while wife is away

Ever contemplated sticking all your golf balls in the dishwasher ahead of your next round? 

Well one golfer did over the weekend as he loaded up all of his balls into the dishwasher while his wife was away on a golf trip. 

The post was initially sent by mtbegbie on Reddit and it was then shared by NUCLR Golf on X where it built up a host of comments.

It's fair to say the post divided opinion.

Some labelled the golfer's call to load the dishwasher with dimples as 'a risky move' while others thought it was a 'genius idea'.

Many questioned to the player the time had probably come for him to start buying new balls given the state of the ones in the photo. 

What do you reckon?

Here's a look at the some of the comments: 

Absolutely genius idea, love it 

Are those range balls dude?!

Love this, I'll be doing this at the weekend

Why isn't your wife ok with that?

Try the washer and dryer instead

Maybe time to buy some new balls

They all look pretty dented to me

Now that's a risky move

Great idea, I'll be doing this tonight whether the Mrs like it or not 

How heavy is your bag?!

Those golf balls should be buried

Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy are so lucky they get new balls every week 

Range balls I hope as they look awful

Those balls are spent dude

Looks like you need balls from Santa

Time to buy new balls man

Have these balls been used for 30 years? 

I'm here for the comments about his wife
