Sebastian Heisele and Scott Jamieson carded matching bogey-free rounds of 65 to share the lead after round one of the 2022 Ras Al Khaimah Championship presented by Phoenix Capital.
Going out in the first group of the day, Heisele carded seven birdies to hit the front at seven under and lead the way for the first time in a DP World Tour event, while Jamieson continued the fine form that sees him sit 21st in the fledgling DP World Tour Rankings Presented by Rolex.
Belgian Thomas Detry, Scot David Law, South African Brandon Stone and American Johannes Veerman were at six under, a shot clear of Dane Nicolai Højgaard and England's Matthew Southgate.
While Scotsman Jamieson has enjoyed a bright start to the season, leading for three rounds in the Rolex Series at the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship, Heisele is teeing it up for the first time in five months.
