Grayson Murray’s Parents Confirm PGA Tour Star’s Suicide in Heartfelt Statement

Tragic Loss of PGA Tour Player Grayson Murray

The golfing community is mourning the loss of Grayson Murray, a beloved PGA Tour player who tragically took his own life yesterday. His parents, Eric and Terry Murray, have issued a heart-wrenching statement addressing their son’s untimely death.

**Statement from Eric & Terry Murray (via @PGATOUR)**

“We have spent the last 24 hours trying to come to terms with the fact that our son is gone. It’s surreal that we not only have to admit it to ourselves, but that we also have to acknowledge it to the world. It’s a nightmare.

We have so many questions that have no answers. But one. Was Grayson loved? The answer is yes. By us, his brother Cameron, his sister Erica, all of his extended family, by his friends, by his fellow players and – it seems – by many of you who are reading this. He was loved and he will be missed.

We would like to thank the PGA TOUR and the entire world of golf for the outpouring of support. Life wasn’t always easy for Grayson, and although he took his own life, we know he rests peacefully now. Please respect our privacy as we work through this incredible tragedy, and please honor Grayson by being kind to one another. If that becomes his legacy, we could ask for nothing else.

Thank you.”
