Jonsson Workwear Open - Day two digest

Everything you need to know from day two in South Africa.

Matteo Manassero went seriously low, Callum Mowat was making it look easy, Dan Bradbury was living dangerously and Ivan Cantero was having double vision in round two of the Jonsson Workwear Open.

Here is everything you need to know from Friday at Glendower Golf Club.

Manassero hits the front

Manassero carded the lowest round of his DP World Tour career with a stunning 61 to take a one-shot lead into the weekend. The Italian made two eagles and seven birdies in an 11-under effort to get to 15 under on a day with lots of low scoring after heavy overnight rain had put preferred lies in place. Home favourite Oliver Bekker was the nearest challenger after a 65, a shot clear of Spain's Angel Hidalgo and Northern Ireland's Tom McKibbin, who both fired rounds of 64, and another Spaniard in Cantero, who signed for a 67. "It's a target golf course and if you put yourself in position and hit some good irons then you know scoring is really, really possible and I think a lot of guys will shoot under par today," said Manssero. "So that's how the course is playing and we'll see for the weekend."

"Best round I've had in my life"

Manassero's 61 beat his previous lowest round on the DP World Tour by one shot and 11 under is his lowest round to par by a whopping three strokes. After starting on the tenth, he was 11 under after 15 holes and had a golden chance on the eighth to make a birdie but he missed a short putt, effectively ending his chances of carding a 59. “I was at one point as well to be fair," Manassero said of thinking about the magic number. "Apart from that sour taste of that little putt at eight, the rest has been has been amazing. I mean, I never even came close to touching 11 under so it's been the best round I've had in my life, I guess. I couldn't be happier."

Right at it

It doesn't matter how tucked the pin is, Callum Mowat will find it - what a shot.

Trees? What trees?

Dan Bradbury was staring at a bogey after his tee-shot at the second. He made a birdie.

Déjà vu

Cantero got off to a nice start from the tenth, making a birdie from around ten feet and then an eagle from half that distance at the 11th.

Then, five holes later, he made a birdie from around ten feet at the 16th and followed it with an eagle from half that distance at the next. You have to love the consistency.
