FORT WORTH, Texas — The PGA TOUR community has responded with sadness, shock and sympathy to the passing of two-time PGA TOUR winner Grayson Murray.
Fourteen years ago, Murray became the first winner of Simpson’s junior tournament, the Webb Simpson Challenge. Both Simpson and Murray had worked with swing coach Ted Kiegiel, the director of golf at Carolina Country Club in Raleigh, at various points in their careers. Simpson shared a meal with Murray at this year’s AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and encouraged him at the recent Wells Fargo Championship, saying that Murray was well on his way to establishing himself as a top-50 player.
