Mourning in the world of golf. AND Grayson Murray, 30, dies, two-time winner on the PGA Tour; this was announced by the Commissioner of the PGA Tour, Jay Monahan. The American golfer, born in 1993, was fighting against problems with alcohol and depression: He had played the first round and part of the second in this week’s Charles Schwab Challenge, but withdrew from the event after 16 holes yesterday. Murray had won the Barbasol Championship as a rookie in 2017 and the 2024 Sony Open in Hawaii.
“We were devastated to learn – and we have the broken heart in sharing this – that PGA Tour player Grayson Murray passed away this morning,” Monahan said in his note. «I’m speechless. The PGA Tour is a family and when you lose a member of your family, you are never the same. We mourn Grayson and pray for the comfort of his loved ones. I reached out to Grayson’s parents to offer our deepest condolences, and during that conversation they asked us to continue with tournament play. They were adamant that Grayson would want us to do this.”
