Big Des Terblanche leads on 20 points under the modified stableford scoring system after the first round of the R1m rand Investec Royal Swazi Sun Open.
The 46-year-old veteran is three points clear of his closest chaser Bryce Easton going into today's second round.
Titch Moore opened with a solid 8-points, which would have equated to a 3-under 69 in strokeplay.
Fellow PE pro Lyle Rowe settled for zero points and East London's Ulrich van den Berg had 2 points - they'll both need low rounds today to make the 36-hole cut.
