We have everything you need so that your 2014 Ford Focus can tow a trailer.

For a hitch I would recommend the Curt part # C11158 as it has been confirmed to fit your vehicle. You will need ball mount number 3593. I attached an install video for you to check as well.

You will also need a hitch ball to complete the connection. For that you would want the part # 19256 for a 1-7/8 inch hitch ball or part # 19258 for a 2 inch hitch ball. For trailer wiring you would want part # 118548. I attached an FAQ article on towing that should be helpful as well.

You will want to check the owner's manual of your vehicle to determine the towing capacities and be sure not to exceed these figures with the weight of your trailer and golf cart. If this hitch has different capacities than your vehicle you will want to go with the lower capacities as the overall capacity.
