So that needs to be decided before each hole who can ride on the fairway. On the executive courses this is no a big deal as there are usually only one or two par 4 holes. On championship courses it is more of a hassle.
Not really. The rule on the championship course has always been that the person who refuses to double up is the one who gets to stay on the cart path. Prior to COVID, this was even posted on several of the starter shacks, the one I remember most was Destin at Bonifay.
