The golf world has seen its fair share of relationship troubles. From Tiger Woods‘ messy divorce in 2009 to his recent public legal breakup with Erica Herman, the legend himself has seen a lot of love controversies. Even the Irish golfer Rory McIlroy faced tons of relationship issues years ago when his engagement with tennis star Caroline Wozniacki fell through. And now the love-trouble saga in golf continues!

In a case much unrelated to the pros, the game itself has caused a drama of sorts in another person’s relationship as a crazy story came to light. A revelation made by a Reddit user about his significant other a while back has caught the golfing world in a mix of worries and laughs as he goes on to ask a very peculiar question, leaving many startled and curious.

Weeks after Tiger Woods’ $30 million suit ended, a golf fanatic poses a bizarre question about bankruptcy

The game of golf can prove costly to play, especially for someone just starting out. The cost of membership fees, equipment, balls, attire, and protective equipment, not to mention coaching charges if one is just starting off, would be very high. The user with the nickname AndromedanPrince took to Reddit to pose a problem and, at the same time, a question to the community in a rather hilarious manner: “Wife loves golf, how long till bankruptcy?”

The husband went on to give a little context to the question as he described his wife’s interest in the game. She is all set up to start with clubs, clothes, and the rest. Explaining the process of buying all the equipment, he said, “She went to grab a pair of golf shoes this am, and ended up leaving with another shirt, a visor, and 2 sets of hat clip ball markers,” with an undercurrent of a humorous but worrisome tone.

Further explaining his monetary concerns, he mentioned how the missus is already scoping out her gear for the winter and fall. Finally, he ends the post with a hilarious, albeit serious question: “How long till this turns into Pro v1s and “I really need this titleist 60 degree”?” While golf enthusiasts would be happy regarding the partner’s choices, the situation as per the post comes out as funny yet troublesome for the husband.

When talking about the cost of being in a relationship, one can’t help but think about the GOAT of golf when he won the $30 million lawsuit against his ex-girlfriend, Erica Herman. The former lover had filed the suit claiming that during their six-year relationship, the pair had an “oral tenancy agreement” as per which Herman could continue to live in Tiger Woods’ multi-million dollar mansion for five years even if they split up. However, the court dismissed her claims, following which Herman dropped the case, thus saving the 15-time major winner millions.

And just like the golf world had tons to say about Woods’ recent relationship trouble, when it came to the Reddit user too, they didn’t shy away from taking the stage!

The Reddit community reacts to the golf enthusiast’s question

As the love for the game increases among the community, so do the crazy and hilarious stories surrounding it. As the post went viral on the internet, many commented on it with their suggestions and reactions, which ranged from helpful ones to outright funny ones. Let us take a look at some of the comments left under the post:

Some fans were in support of talking her into playing in a simulator, which would cost much less and is something that every man wants: “Hey j*****s, this is your opportunity to talk her into a simulator.”

Another fan sympathized with the user as he recounted his own experience: “My GF has played golf 6 times, she allready has two pairs of shoes. I’m amazed. “

There were some who indirectly encouraged the husband to play golf: “I’d ask her boyfriend to buy some gear too, seems fair.”

A fan directly answered the question that he posed in a sarcastic manner denoting the time one would have to spend buying such stuff for the wife, “How long till bankruptcy, not soon enough.”

There were also users who hilariously took a jab at the husband while writing about the conversation that might have happened between the couple.

“Husband, “I wish my wife understood how much I enjoy golf, get her to try a round”.
Wife, “sweetie, loved it, I understand now, think I’m hooked”.
Husband, “damn, backfire” “

One fan seriously gave a suggestion to cut down costs for the game: “Suggest she do what my wife did after she got obsessed/addicted to golf; get a job in the pro shop at your local club. Free golf, and big discounts on lessons and merchandise.”

As the post went viral, one couldn’t help but imagine the actual cost of playing the sport for the professionals. What is your take on the Reddit user’s post? Let us know in the comments below.
