ABSTRACT:
A cleaning device having particular utility for cleaning a golf ball is disclosed. A holding element includes a bottom, an upstanding wall, and an inwardly directed lip which forms an opening. A cleaning element is held within the device such that it is easily engaged by inserting a portion of the golf ball through the opening. The lip extends inwardly by a distance such that, when the cleaning device is in a generally vertical orientation, the lip, wall, and bottom form a reservoir to prevent the leakage of a cleaning fluid. The cleaning fluid is preferably water. The cleaning element is made of synthetic material and includes a woven pad backing and upwardly directed filaments. The woven backing provides a plurality of cavities for holding the cleaning fluid, while the filaments provide a surface for scrubbing the portion of the golf ball. Artificial turf is the preferred material for the cleaning element.
