"I'm happy to go through," said Petersen. "Martijn is an amazing talent and is probably the quickest player in the world at this point in time.
"In the first session I needed to catch my breath, find my rhythm in a sense and I was hanging onto his coat-tails and he was so clinical on his finishing.
"I was quite mesmerised by his pace. I recomposed myself at the start of the second session and those five legs I think put him in a wobble a little bit.
"I'm ecstatic that I'm performing at that level. As long as I play well, that's the only thing that matters."
