Fasth heads BMW Open
22/06/2007 21:55 - (SA)
Munich - The form of Niclas Fasth at the US Open has helped him shoot a near faultless seven-under 65 for a two-shot halfway lead in the BMW International Open.
The Swede, fresh from his fourth place finish at Oakmont,
surged to 12-under 132 with a masterful putting display in the weather-affected second round.
His countryman, Peter Hanson, had set the target
earlier after a two-hour suspension for bad weather, carding a
66 for 10-under, which was good enough for second place.
Fasth said he was on a high after finishing only two
strokes behind winner Angel Cabrera in the US Open.
"Obviously last week gave me a bit of confidence," said Fasth.

132 - Niclas Fasth (SWE) 67 65
