| Thanks for the reply, exactly highlighting the need for people to read the rules and learn them.
In match play if 2 people play the wrong ball, the first person to have played the wrong ball automatically loses the hole. End of discussion.
In a friendly match do whatever you like, but in a real match play, that's the rule.
If you see your opponent near both balls and are unsure which one he's hitting, then wait until he hits then check out the remaining ball. If he hit the wrong one, you win the hole. (im not talking deviousness, telling him the wrong ball is his). It's 100% the responsibility of a player to identify his ball.
