The pair, who finished sixth last year, got off to a flying start on the Olaz��bal Course at Mission Hills with four birdies on the first four holes and when Kaymer eagled the seventh they were in front. More birdies followed, with three in succession from the ninth; another on the 15th gave them a better ball score of 62.Australia came home in just 30 strokes as Richard Green and Brendan Jones enjoyed an opening round of 63 while Canada , Spain and the United States were gathered at eight under par. Tournament favourites Sweden are in the group at seven under but the defending champions and host nation struggled to find top gear on the opening day.Colin Montgomerie and Alastair Forsyth couldn't buy a putt as Scotland finished on four under par while China came unstuck on 18th when Liang Wen-chong and Zhang Lian-wei double bogeyed the hole after both players found the water.Instead the day belonged to Germany . Kaymer has won twice on The European Tour this year as he has established himself as one of the world's top young players while Cejka is back playing again in his first full event following surgery to repair a trapped nerve in the summer. Of the two players, Kaymer in particular played beautifully as he contributed six birdies and an eagle to the German cause."Martin played really solid golf today," said Cejka. "He made a lot of birdies, an eagle, and I just tried to contribute a couple of times. We have three more rounds to go and we are delighted to be here. We are leading, and I think it's a great start for Germany ." Kaymer was quick to point out it was a team effort and having fun is the key, commenting: "You want to perform well and you want to play well, but this is a team event, and I think we should just enjoy this week. This is the last tournament for most of the players in the year, and we should just enjoy this week and have fun. Of course, we want to play well, and we will try our best this week. And it's always nice if you can play for your country."The Australian pair of Green and Jones are also delighted to be representing their country this week. It could have been a tough decision to come and play in China with the Sportsbet Australian Masters taking place in Green's home city of Melbourne , but despite the obvious pull of a home event he won in 2004, he was not going to pass up the opportunity of playing in the Omega Mission Hills World Cup.Green said: "To play for Australia is a huge honour; both Brendan and I feel that way. Both myself and Brendan have focused on the World Cup and winning for Australia , and doing as good a job as we can." Jones backed up his partner's passion for playing under the Australian flag when he said: "I represented Australia at the amateur level, but when there's two professionals that get a chance once a year to represent their country, I just think it's one of the greatest honours."As Richard said, we both really want to be here and we both really want to do well. So we're a quarter of the way there, and I'm sure if we would hold the World Cup at the end of the week, I'm sure that there would be a few people playing the Australian Masters who wish they were in our shoes."Pablo Larrazabal, the Sir Henry Cotton Rookie of the Year on The European Tour, is clearly enjoying his role as the junior partner alongside the vastly experienced Ryder Cup player, Miguel Angel Jim��nez, and the pair combined well with an opening round of eight under par 64."We played very well, we complemented each other very well and it's nice, two shots behind the lead," said Jimenez. "The leaders will feel the breath on their necks."Larrazabal was all smiles at the end. He said: "It's a lot of fun to play with him. We enjoyed it all day out there. If we keep on doing the same, trying to have fun out there, well, let's see what happens."There's plenty of rivalry between the United States and Canada but the Canadian underdogs held their own against their neighbours and, like the Americans, shot eight under par for a share of third place.The 28 teams will play the second round as foursomes and the alternate shot format is sure to present a fresh challenge on day two of the Omega Mission Hills World Cup.

The 24-year-old Englishman followed up his eight-under-par 62 at The Hong Kong Golf with a 68 to finish the day on 10-under-par 130. The prestigious tournament, now in its 45th year, is being co-sanctioned by the Asian PGA and European Tours for the third year in row.Defending champion Fredrik Jacobson from Sweden is in second place after shooting a 65, while his compatriot Henrik Nystrom, who finished joint second last year, is two strokes further back."After such a low round it is good to get a good steady round in. It's good to shoot a couple under and let everyone try and chase it," said McEvoy.Former amateur star McEvoy won the European Tour Qualifying School last month and has displayed a maturity beyond his years in what is the opening event of The European Tour's 2003/2004 season."I was very relaxed. I just love being here and being out there. I enjoy having fun all the time. It's been good. I am just going to try and play exactly the same way at the weekend," added McEvoy, who was part of the Great Britain and Ireland team that won the Walker Cup in 2001.The Englishman shot four birdies and two bogies to leave the field trailing in his wake."I have a solid game so I don't really put myself under that much pressure. It's nice to be at the front and I enjoy being there," said McEvoy.Jacobson holed a 15 foot birdie putt on the last and is well placed heading into the last two rounds."It's nice to make that one up the last to get a little closer before the weekend so that I can sleep nicely," said Jacobson.The Swede's victory last year was his first on The European Tour and proved to be the catalyst for an outstanding season. He also won the Portuguese Open and the season-ending Volvo Masters in Spain to claim fourth place on the Volvo Order of Merit."I will feel good if I am in there on Sunday after what I have been through this year," added the Swede.Thailand's Prayad Marksaeng is joint fourth on four under with Ireland's Padraig Harrington, South African Hennie Otto, and Sweden's Peter Gustafsson."I missed the cut last year so I'm looking for a top-10 finish this week. The leader is well in front and might be difficult to catch," said Prayad, who has spent most of this year playing in Japan.Harrington, third on last season's Order of Merit in Europe, shot a 69."I didn't hole the putts on the front nine but I did at the end. They were two totally contrasting nine holes. Overall I am happy enough at one under. Obviously a bit of work has to be done at the weekend. I am still in the tournament," said the Irishman.The longest drive competition, which has been taking place at Hole 11 during the OMEGA Hong Kong Open, is still led by Daniel Gaunt from Australia, who hit a 351-yard yesterday. The competition will continue tomorrow through till Round 4.Meanwhile, Michael Campbell from New Zealand and Jean Van de Velde from France attended this year's OMEGA Ladies Day with numbers of local celebrities and artists. Both the players said they were very glad to have been here and praised the very top quality of the golf course of the Hong Kong Golf Club in Fanling.130 - Richard McEvoy (ENG) 62-68133 - Fredrik Jacobson (SWE) 68-65135 - Henrik Nystrom (SWE) 69-66136 - Hennie Otto (RSA) 68-68, Padraig Harrington (IRE) 67-69Prayad Marksaeng (THA) 67-69, Peter Gustafsson (SWE) 72-64137 - Chris Gane (ENG) 70-67, Steven O'Hara (SCO) 66-71, Darren Clarke (NIR)68-69, Rob Rashell (USA) 70-67,Amandeep Johl (IND) 66-71, Adam Fraser (AUS)69-68Christopher Hanell (SWE) 68-69138 - Wang Ter-Chang (TPE) 68-70, Des Terblanche (RSA) 70-68, Gary Rusnak(USA) 68-70, Michael Campbell (NZL) 67-71, Desvonde Botes (RSA) 67-71, ShaunWebster (ENG) 68-70, Tsai Chi-huang (TPE) 68-70, Choi Kyung-ju (KOR) 70-68139 - Barry Lane (ENG) 67-72, James Kingston (RSA) 69-70, Zhang Lian-wei(CHN) 67-72, Jos�� Maria Olazabal (ESP) 68-71, Kyi Hla Han (MYN) 69-70Derek Fung (HKG) 68-71, Tyrol Auret (RSA) 71-68, Jamie Elson (ENG) 72-67
