Best advice for breaking 80 from PGA Professional Rob Labritz
Labritz chalks it up to just two things: iron control and driver control.
To summarize: having control of your driver and control of your irons – specifically the distances they travel – is going to allow you to properly position yourself off the tee, giving you better access to greens and pin positions. Better players hit more greens in regulation.

Editors note: It's a lot of luck too. From someone who has an 18 handicap and has broken 80 twice.

I'm Sure They Had No Problems Selling This Package
Here's what a $5,000 ticket can fetch you at the Players
(GolfDigest.com)
A shiny new hospitality
ticket called The Players Club provides a “super premium” experience
not previously available during tournament week at TPC Sawgrass. Among
the accouterments at one’s disposal inside the 70,000-square-foot
clubhouse are an endless array of five-star food from chefs flown in for
this week, bottomless adult beverages, access to manicurists and
concierges, a $500 merchandise credit and Q&As with anyone from
commissioner Tim Finchem (or former commissioner Deane Beman), to NBC
analyst Gary Koch, to one of the tour’s rules officials. All it will
cost you for the week is a cool $5,000.
It
is also another example of the PGA Tour’s flagship event attempting to
replicate the gold-standard of hospitality experiences in golf, the
Masters, which in 2013 unveiled golf’s snazziest VIP treatment for the
well-heeled and connected, Berckmans Place.

There's A Method To Their Madness
Clarkson, Hammond And May's The Grand Tour Came From An Episode Of Top Gear
[I] outlined yesterday, the title likely has many meanings—the most specific being a literal grand tour taken by aristocratic Europeans a couple centuries ago. This was brought up by reader BelegUS in the comments on the original announcement post.
Additionally, the new Amazon show will be traveling with 11 stops on what Richard Hammond also directly referred to as a grand tour.
Sent to me by my seemingly-lone supporter Manuel T. was a clip from the first episode of Series 14 of old Top Gear featuring a conversation between the hosting trio about the same exact European “grand tour” I explained yesterday.

How Math Can Be Good, Bad & Confusing
Dealer selling 727-hp Ford Mustang for $40K
There are some caveats, of course.
Lebanon's formula for this high-performance Stang is absurdly simple – take a base, 5.0-liter GT, which retails for $32,395. Add Roush's $7,549.99 Phase 2 supercharger kit and its 2.3-liter TVS blower. Charge just $39,995. According to Roush's own website, installing the Phase 2 kit takes 12 hours, which the dealership is eating. That's what really makes this a bargain. There are some caveats here, of course.
What customers get for $40,000 is a base Mustang with a supercharger – this isn't one of Roush's Stage 1, 2, or 3 creations. There's no upgraded body kit, bigger wheels, more powerful brakes, or stiffer suspension. But Lebanon doesn't sound like it's planning on selling a lot of sleeper-spec Mustangs. Watson told The Drive many of the dealership's Roush products are selling for $45,000 to $50,000, and even a few $60,000 models have rolled off the dealer's lot, after customers dig deeper into the Roush parts catalog.
