King edges past Petersen, De Zwaan smashes Fasching

King faced a tough test in the form of Devon Petersen and he only just squeezed through against the Spartan who was making his first appearance on the European Tour for some time. De Zwaan on the other hand had it easier smashing through debutant Banjamin Fasching. ‘The Black Cobra’ only averaged 87 but didn’t need to average high with his opponent only reaching 75.
