English golfers Oliver Wilson and Phillip Archer share the lead

oliver wilson English golfing pair Oliver Wilson and Phillip Archer have a share of the lead following the first round of the Dunhill Championship, and also on four-under par after rounds of 68 at Leopard Creek, are South African stars Charl Schwartzel and Wayne de Haas and Italy's Alessendro Tadini.

And English golfer Sam Walker, Scottish player Andrew Coltart and Ireland's David Higgins are in a group of eight one just shot behind.

However, Ernie Els, who was trying for a fourth Dunhill title, was well down the field after he shot a level par 72.

Phillip Archer and Oliver Wilson both had six birdies and two bogeys on an extremely hot day when temperatures went as high as 37C degrees.

Oliver Wilson said: "It became really hot after the turn and I lost concentration.

"All I could think of was the 18th and I had absolute visions of it happening again. But it was fantastic to birdie it today."
