His friend was wrong. Contrary to popular belief, that is the true definition of "rub of the green". When a ball is deflected by an outside agency you play the ball as it lies unless relief is allowed under a rule because of the lie. Sometimes the ball bounces good, sometimes it bounces bad. The ruling is the same in any case.

So true! I sliced a ball over the OB stakes so viciously it bounced off the stucco on a house and back onto the fairway. Ball washer, house, beverage cart...play it down!

Well, there is the question of whether the ball washer was his caddie... in which case it's a penalty, whether his ball washing towel was wet or not.

Dad's course in NC has power lines that come in to play off the tee on a hole, and local rule is replaying the shot without penalty. Ball washer? Sorry, no dice.

You don't get a free pass for sucking.

HAHA, that should be everyone's first thought when they have a rules question.
