Ricardo Santos has recorded a first-round 62 to take an early lead at the Africa Open in East London.

Welshman Rhys Davies and England's Richard Bland both shot rounds of 64, while South African Garth Mulroy produced the same score.

France's Gregory Bourdy sits a shot further adrift, while home favourites Thomas Aiken and Darren Fichardt ended the day on five-under.
