With a golfer traveling directly to their own ball, allowing the time necessary for an effective pre-shot routine.
The level of social interaction/social distancing with other golfers in their group was flexible (as with Tour Professionals), and the single golfer role allowed appropriate levels of focus as challenges varied throughout a round of golf.
The first electric golf cart was custom made in 1932, and for the first twenty years golf carts were used primarily by those with disabilities. In the 1950’s, the market expanded with two of the present market share leaders (E-Z-GO and Club Car) entering the category.
The two-rider golf cart design seems to have been developed for economic reasons, ignoring the fact that the game of golf was meant to be an individual game. The acquisition of E-Z-GO and Club Car by two non-golf companies in the 1990’s (Textron Inc. and Ingersoll Rand) seemed to keep the category from adapting to the needs of golfers, leading to a high percentage of golf courses which do not offer an alternative riding option beyond a two-rider golf cart.
The timing for the golf industry to move to a single rider golf cart is now. Golf courses with single rider golf cart options will have an advantage in a challenging market, and this can be the driver of significant change ahead in the golf cart category. Economics created two rider carts long ago, and in this case it may be the reason that the market shifts away from two rider golf carts.
