Meanwhile Ekurhuleni needed to turn things around after a 1-point loss to Central Gauteng on day one, but Gauteng North made the defending champions work for their win.
The Roses took a 2.5 โ 1.5 lead into the singles and new cap John-William Blomerus immediately took their tally to 3.5 when he punished Handre Truter 7 & 6. Chris van Tonder won 3 & 1, but then Daisies started hitting back with Gregg Gilson, Armand van Dyk and Dawid Opperman racking up points.
