Bill Haas drops out of tournament

PGA golfer Bill Haas escaped serious injuries as a passenger in a Ferrari involved in a rollover crash in Los Angeles that killed his driver, officials said Wednesday. The driver of a BMW involved in the collision was injured and actor Luke Wilson, driving a third vehicle clipped by the Ferrari, was not hurt.

The accident happened on a residential block in the wealthy Pacific Palisades neighborhood around 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, according to Los Angeles police.

The Ferrari’s driver, who died at the scene, was identified by coroner’s officials as Mark William Gibello, 71, a resident of Pacific Palisades. Haas was staying with Gibello’s family as he prepared to play this week in the Genesis Open at nearby Riviera Country Club, the golfer’s manager, Allen Hobbs, said.

“While Bill escaped serious injuries and has been released from the hospital, he is understandably shaken up and — more importantly — his deepest condolences go out to the host family during this tragic and difficult time,” Hobbs said in a statement. Haas, 35, will withdraw from the Genesis Open and return home to South Carolina to recuperate, Hobbs said.

Jay Haas, the golfer’s father, told Golf Channel that his son has pain and swelling in one of his legs.

Marcelo sealed the victory three minutes later to give the twotime defending champions a huge lead heading into the second leg in Paris on March 6.
