PINEHURST, N.C. — The United States Golf Association is honoring the late Grayson Murray this week at Pinehurst Resort, which is hosting the 2024 U.S. Open.
The USGA has adorned a locker with a message about Murray, a Raleigh native and two-time PGA Tour winner: “The USGA remembers Grayson and pays tribute to the playing accomplishments that merited his place in the 124th U.S. Open Championship,”
The bottom of the plaque has a quote that reads: “Be kind to one another.”
Murray, who was open about his battle with alcohol issues and depression, was set to compete at Pinehurst as the 59th-ranked player in the world. The 30-year-old golfer died May 25 and his parents, Eric and Terry Murray, released a statement the following day saying their son’s death was a suicide.
