Murray – citing an illness – withdrew Friday during the second round of the 2024 Charles Schwab Challenge, CBS Sports reported.
PGA officials said grief counselors will be made available at all venues this week and will release more information as it becomes available.
Murray won his second PGA TOUR title at this year’s Sony Open in Hawaii. He played golf at Wake Forest University, East Carolina University and Arizona State University before turning professional. He won his first title at the 2017 Barbasol Championship when he was 23 years old.
