from A transparent compound of "golf" and "cart." "Golf" came into English from Scots in the 15th century, possibly related to a Middle Dutch word for a club or stick used in ball games. "Cart" is much older, tracing back through Old Norse "kartr" and Old English "cræt" to words for a wheeled vehicle. The motorized golf cart itself is a 20th-century American invention, born when someone decided that walking eighteen holes was optional.
