Grayson Murray, 30 year old PGA golfer ends life

[tgull]

He was peaking having already earned over $2M this year alone winning the Sony Open in January. His career took a dive in his mid to late 20s due to alcoholism and depression. He withdrew from the Colonial Friday despite playing pretty well. Just recently signed a big contract with Mizzuno and dead the next day.

I have battled alcohol, and thankfully not depression. At least clinical depression. But I have been up at 4am sitting alone in my office with my life going on the surface great, only to be massively upset nursing a vodka watching reruns on TV. My depression was not clinical, rather a by byproduct of alcohol. Obviously did not know Grayson, but I would think he was suffering from clinical depression, and the alcohol which is a depressant fueled his decision to commit suicide.

I am not going to say I walked in his shoes. I am older, actually a lot older by 20 years. But I get how someone could be that off the mental grid to end it. Not saying I was close, but 4am in the pitch dark, drunk, play tricks on your mind. I am off the sauce, but yeah, I get the fact people can't take it much longer in the middle of the night with any form of a mental issue, drunk. Guy seemed like a good dude on his recent interviews. RIP.

I was listening to a country music radio station and I could not believe how many tunes promote alcoholism.

RIP

Can’t take credit for it, found on Reddit, but semi funny.

What did Grayson Murray shoot Saturday?

Himself.

It does appear a planned wedding was recently called off because he started drinking again. Hard to blame her for that if true.

Wow, this is an unorthodox way to kill yourself:

Grayson Murray died from suspected carbon monoxide poisoning, according to the Daily Mail.

The 30-year-old golfer’s Palm Beach Gardens townhouse supposedly filled with the exhaust fumes from his Land Rover, left running in the ground-floor garage, per the outlet.

Police were called to the residence, which Murray shared with fiancée Christina Ritchie, at 10:49 a.m. on May 25, after a neighbor heard a carbon monoxide alarm go off.

I assume he left a note, because plenty of people die of accidental carbon monoxide poisoning. There was a famous case years ago where a guy went over a couple buddies house and parked underneath the family room, he left the car running because he thought they were leaving right away. When he got inside they decided to drink a couple beers before leaving. They were found dead the next day all three on the couch, apparently the fumes of the car made it's way into the family room and that was that. Talk about a bad beat.
