When you rent a cart you are given the yellow copy of the form you must sign for the rental agreement. That copy states among other things, for executive courses carts are to be returned within 30 minutes after completion of the round for executive course and immediately after completion of rounds on championship courses. There is nothing on the agreement that stipulates a specific time for retuning carts. If there needs to be any deviation to what's on the agreement, the golfer renting the cart should be informed at the time they sign the agreement, otherwise the golfer is within their rights to refuse handing over the cart before completion of his or her round. The courses know how long it takes to complete a round on executive and championship courses, so based on the golfer's tee-time, why would the course even rent a cart if there was not going to be enough time to complete the round before the cart needed to be turned in.
