South African duo in the lead
On the side of the top 10, the leaders are the locals Darren Fichardt and Martin Vorster at -8. Both authors of a clear round, Darren Fichardt made 8 birdies: “ I started with two birdies and kept going. Once you’ve gotten off to a good start, there’s nothing more you can do. We must therefore continue to ride the wave. A good start always makes the rest of the week easier. »
“It’s a good point for me, the game plan will be the same tomorrow, we won’t change anything”
His co-leader Martin Vorster made an eagle at 10 and 6 birdies: “ I gave myself a lot of opportunities and ended up making a few putts. So it’s a very solid start to the tournament. It’s a good point for me, the game plan will be the same tomorrow, we won’t change anything. From tee to green there is no change and I hope to make some putts again. »
They are followed in 3rd position at -7 by Swedes Sebastian Söderberg and Joakim Lagergren, local Hennie O’Kennedy and German Nick Bachem.
