Fresh off his bogey-free amateur course-equalling record 63 to make the match-play draw, Malan Potgieter kept the momentum going with a 2-up victory over American Brandon Robison.
The South African advances to the last 32 of The Amateur Championship at Royal Liverpool alongside countrymen Stefan Jacobs and Andries van der Vyver.
Van der Vyver powered into the last 32 with an emphatic 6&5 victory over Melville Muller of the Netherlands while Jacobs holed a remarkable 36-foot putt to keep his match alive against Northern Ireland’s Keith Egan.
Jacobs then buried another for birdie on the 20th hole to book his place in the last 32.
GolfRSA squad member Ivan Verster took his match all the way to the final hole before American Reed Arnoldo rolled in an eight-foot birdie putt to claim a 1-up victory.
