PRO GOLFER GRAYSON MURRAY DIED BY SUICIDE, PARENTS SAY

Grayson Murray‘s parents have released a statement about the death of their 30-year-old son … revealing the PGA Tour golfer died by suicide.
Murray’s parents, Eric and Terry, gave the update on Sunday … a day after Grayson died following his abrupt withdrawal from the second round of the Charles Schwab Challenge. At the time, he cited sudden illness as the cause.
“We have spent the last 24 hours trying to come to terms with the fact that our son is gone,” his parents said on Sunday.

“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.”
“Life wasn’t always easy for Grayson, and although he took his own life, we know he rests peacefully now.”
