Grayson Murray’s parents start foundation for mental health awareness

grayson murray

The parents of late PGA Tour player Grayson Murray announced the launch of a foundation in their son’s honor on Monday.

Murray, who took his life at age 30 on May 25, 2024, was open about his battles with anxiety, depression and addiction. The nonprofit founded by Eric and Terry Murray will aim to raise awareness and support of mental health and addiction challenges that impact people from all walks of life.

“Grayson touched the hearts of so many by sharing his own mental health challenges,” Murray’s parents said in a statement issued Monday by the Grayson Murray Foundation. “He utilized his platform as a multi-time champion on the PGA Tour to reach and inspire those in need — and we are determined to continue his generosity and unwavering commitment to help make a difference in the lives of others.”

Based out of Murray’s hometown of Raleigh, N.C., the foundation will also support “innovative research” and expanded access to essential mental health and addiction care services. It will strive to foster “a culture of understanding inspired by Murray’s legacy of compassion, resilience and hope.”

Murray joined the PGA Tour in 2017 and recorded wins at that year’s Barbasol Championship and the 2024 Sony Open in Hawaii. He also tallied three wins on the Korn Ferry Tour after joining in 2016.
