Jet-lagged Schwartzel still manages to share lead

Charl Schwartzel produced a two under par 70 to move into a share of the second round lead of the Vodacom Business Origins of Golf event at Gardener Ross Golf and Country Estate.
The South African, twice a winner on The European Tour this season, moved to seven under together with first round leader Vaughn Groenewald and qualifier PG van Zyl.
Schwartzel only flew into South Africa hours before his first round from the United States after making his debut in the Masters Tournament last week.
"Considering the state I'm in and how far I've travelled, I'm pretty pleased," he said. "If I can putt that badly and still be up on the leaderboard, maybe I can shoot a good score tomorrow."
He made three bogeys in his round, but he pulled things back with consecutive birdies on the 16th, where he hit a superb approach to inside two feet, and on the 17th where he finally got a putt to roll in from about ten feet.
