Joliet, IL (SportsNetwork.com) - Richard Petty Motorsports revealed on Saturday that Marcos Ambrose will not return as driver of the No. 9 Ford for the team in the Sprint Cup Series in 2015. According to a news release from RPM, Ambrose has informed the organization that he will return to his native home of Australia next year. RPM also noted that it is currently evaluating several driver opportunities for the No. 9, and the team will make a future announcement. Marcos will always be a part of our extended racing family, team co-owner Richard Petty said in a statement. He came over to the United States with his family and dedicated his time here to giving it the best he had each week. I couldnt ask anything more from Marcos and his commitment on and off of the track to our race team and our partners. Away from the track, hes a family person first. Thats something I respect and well miss Marcos, (wife) Sonja and their children (Tabitha and Adelaide). Ambrose has driven for RPM in Sprint Cup since the start of 2011 season. He has two career victories in NASCARs top series, with both of them occurring at Watkins Glen, a road course in Upstate New York. Ambrose finished second to A.J. Allmendinger in last months Sprint Cup race at Watkins Glen. First of all, I need to thank everybody at Richard Petty Motorsports. It has been a great four years together, Ambrose said following Saturday mornings Sprint Cup practice session at Chicagoland Speedway. It has been incredible to drive for The King (Richard Petty) and (team sponsors) Stanley, DeWalt and Ford Racing and everybody. The time is just right for me to stop. I feel like the timing is right for myself and my family to return to Australia, and that is what we are going to do. There has been wide speculation for the past several months that Ambrose will return to his home country to compete in the Australian V8 Supercar Series, driving an entry for NASCAR and IndyCar Series team owner Roger Penske. Ambrose is a two-time champion of the V8 Supercar Series, a racing circuit that competes on road courses. He won his titles consecutively from 2003-04, scoring 27 race victories. Today is not the day to talk about anything about my racing future, Ambrose said. I feel like personally this is the right choice for myself and my family to call it a day here in the U.S. and move on to our next chapter. Sprint Cup is at Chicagoland this weekend for the first round in the 10-race Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. Ambrose did not qualify for the Chase, but his teammate, Aric Almirola, made the 16-driver field with a victory in the rain-shortened July race at Daytona International Speedway. Ambrose is currently 23rd in the point standings. nike air max thea sale . Bomber head coach Tim Burke says Hladio worked with the team last season in training camp. .

Bjorn, who had a 36-hole total of 8-under 134, made a testing six-foot putt to save par on the 16th and a birdie on the 17th before bogeying the final hole after a misjudged approach shot. American Kevin Streelman was in second place after shooting a 69. He and Matt Kuchar led the overall team standings for the U.S. after 36 holes, with a three-stroke margin over Denmark and seven over Japan and Australia. Tied for third in the individual stroke-play competition were Jason Day of Australia (70) and Ricardo Santos of Portugal (69). Kuchar was in a four-way tie for fifth after a 68, five strokes behind Bjorn. Adam Scott, who has won the Australian PGA and Australian Masters over the past two weeks, shot 68 and was nine strokes behind Bjorn in a group with Graeme McDowell (71). There was no 36-hole cut in the 60-man field that includes 26 two-man national teams and eight individual golfers. "A few things happened on the golf course today that really tested me," Bjorn said. "I three-putted the first -- I thought the greens were a lot firmer than they were early on." Bjorn shot 66 on Thursday and shared the first-round lead with Streelman. "I patiently worked my way into the round, maybe not as good as yesterday," he said. "But I played some really good stuff on the back nine, and Ive got to take that with me into the weekend." Streelman, representing the U.S. for the first time, birdied his first four holes but gave three strokes back with a bogey on the eighth and a double-bogey on the ninth, blading a shot out of the bunker. "I kind of just did whatt you are supposed to on those first four holes," Streelman said.dddddddddddd "I hit it in the wrong part of the golf course on No. 8 and No. 9, and Royal Melbourne will bite you when you do that which is what makes it such an awesome golf course." He made a four-foot par save on No. 17, and again on 18. "That was about a cup out, just breathe on it type of putt and its one of those when I hit it I knew I had made it," he said of his putt on the 17th. Streelman, playing Royal Melbourne for the first time, said he couldnt believe the quickness of the greens. "It is the same feel of Augusta on a weekend -- actually I wouldnt know because I havent made a cut in the Masters yet. So Friday afternoon at Augusta it feels like," he said. Streelman said despite the change in format here, in which individual stroke-play is being accentuated with US$7 million in prize money, with only US$1 million for the team component, he wants to win the World Cup team trophy for the U.S. Kuchar and Gary Woodland won the last team event in 2011 in China. The individual portion of the tournament was introduced this year to mirror the format and rankings system which will be used in 2016 when golf makes its return to the Olympics at Rio de Janeiro. "I am definitely keeping my eye on that team score," Streelman said. "I know he (Kuchar) will be there for me and then hopefully I can continue to play well and we can bring it home." Day, who birdied No. 15 and then made three good pars to finish the round, didnt have any luck on the greens. "I had three lip-outs, pretty harsh ones, but definitely happy with shooting 1 under," Day said. "Being out here at Royal Melbourne with how hard and fast the greens are, it can definitely go south pretty quick." cheap nfl jerseys wholesale jerseys cheap jerseys cheap jerseys wholesale jerseys Ra...
