keep our distance and we're all in separate carts and rarely get even six feet away from each other as on a golf course shots, especially from us duffers, end up several yards away from the other so we're rarely as close as six feet. And again, we're out in the open air. Most reports have said it's safer outside than in enclosed spaces, and this:

COVID-19 transmission can happen in just a few minutes over the course of a day, the Centers for Disease Control said Tuesday. The federal health agency had previously said that people should get tested if they’ve been within six feet of a COVID-19-positive person for more than 15 minutes at one time. But after studying a small outbreak at a Vermont prison, they updated the guidance to say that transmission can occur if someone is around another person who has the virus for a total of 15 minutes over a 24-hour period — even if each exposure was just two or three minutes at a time.
