Cause of 30-Year-Old Golfer Grayson Murray’s Tragic Death Has Been Revealed – ‘It’s a Nightmare’

The golf world has been mourning after the death of pro golfer Grayson Murray on Saturday.
Details had initially been scarce, but more light has been shed on the tragic situation since.
When reports first surfaced of Murray’s passing, no details were given as to why the otherwise seemingly healthy Murray died abruptly.
Today, Murray’s family shed some further details about the PGA pro, including the cause of death.
The statement from Eric and Terry Murray — Grayson’s parents — was shared by the PGA Tour, revealing that Murray had taken his own life.
“We have spent the last 24 hours trying to come to terms with the fact that our son is gone,” the parents wrote. “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.
Have you been following the Grayson Murray story?
“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.”
The statement did not provide any further details on how Murray had taken his own life.
According to ESPN, Murray withdrew from the Charles Schwab Challenge at Colonial in Fort Worth, Texas, on Friday.
At the time, the Tour had attributed the withdrawal to an undisclosed illness.
Murray previously disclosed that he has struggled with alcohol.
As ESPN pointed out, Murray attributed a marked improvement on the golf course to ditching the alcohol.
“It took me a long time to get to this point,” Murray said in January after winning the Sony Open in Hawaii. “That was seven years ago, over seven years ago. I’m a different man now. I would not be in this position right now today if I didn’t put that drink down eight months ago.”
Sunday, Murray’s peers on the PGA Tour wore a black ribbon — a nod to Murray’s beloved Carolina Hurricanes — to honor him.

A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:
I heard a chilling comment the other day: “We don’t even know if an election will be held in 2024.”
That wasn’t said by a conspiracy theorist or a doomsday prophet. No, former U.S. national security advisor Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn said that to the founder of The Western Journal, Floyd Brown.
Gen. Flynn’s warning means that the 2024 election is the most important election for every single living American. If we lose this one to the wealthy elites who hate us, hate God, and hate what America stands for, we can only assume that 248 years of American history and the values we hold dear to our hearts may soon vanish.
The end game is here, and as Benjamin Franklin said, “We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately.”
All of this means that without you, it’s over. We have the platform, the journalists, and the experience to fight back hard, but Big Tech is strangling us through advertising blacklists, shadow bans, and algorithms. Did you know that we’ve been blacklisted by 90% of advertisers? Without direct support from you, our readers, we can’t continue the fight.
Can we count on your support? It may not seem like much, but a Western Journal Membership can make all the difference in the world because when you support us directly, you cut Big Tech out of the picture. They lose control.
A monthly Western Journal Membership costs less than one coffee and breakfast sandwich each month, and it gets you access to ALL of our content — news, commentary, and premium articles. You’ll experience a radically reduced number of ads, and most importantly you will be vitally supporting the fight for America’s soul in 2024.
We are literally counting on you because without our members, The Western Journal would cease to exist. Will you join us in the fight?
Sincerely,
Josh Manning
Deputy Managing Editor
