BEAU CHAMP, Mauritius - Victor Perez continued his fabulous start to life on the European Tour by sharing the first-round lead with an 8-under 64 at the Mauritius Open on Thursday.
Perez and Chikkarangappa S. are the co-leaders on the second weekend of the tour's 2019 season.
Perez finished in a tie for third at the season-opening Hong Kong Open last weekend after graduating from the Challenge Tour.
The Frenchman began at the Four Seasons Golf Course in Mauritius with nine birdies and a single bogey.
''It's been a really good streak, a little hard to believe in golf when we know how the highs and the lows can be,'' Perez said.
