Consecutive double bogeys saw Johan Edfors drop from top spot as the Vivendi Cup 2010 resumed in Paris.
The Swede opened his account at Golf de Joyenval with a blistering 61 on the Marly Course, but was finding life on the Retz course much tougher.
After starting his round with a bogey the three-time European Tour winner did manage to retrieve a shot on the fourth, but double bogeyed the next two to be four over for the day and seven under overall.
David Dixon, in second overnight after a nine under opening round, found himself sharing the lead before he had even teed off and he was joined by Dane Sǿren Kjeldsen and England's John Parry.
Kjeldsen was two under for his round at the turn, while Parry - who like Edfors had been in with a chance of a first European Tour 59 at one stage in his opening round - was one under through five.
