Scotland's Tartan Tour professionals made a rousing start to the PGA of Europe International Team Championship and were sharing the lead after the opening round at the Palmares resort in Portugal.
The trio of Gareth Wright, David Patrick and David Orr posted a seven-under-par tally of 137 to finish alongside England at the head of the standings.
The Scots, six-time winners of the title down the years but without a victory since 2006, were boosted by a late charge from Wright, the British Club Professionals' champion.
