Sad news tonight.
Two time winner on the PGA tour Grayson Murray has passed away suddenly at the age of just 30. Seems to have hit a lot of people on the tour really hard. Sincerest condolences to family and friends. Taken too young . R.I.P.

Edit: Apparently he took his own life. Utterly tragic .

All charges against Scottie Scheffler have now been dropped.
