Both men finished on 12-under-par at a blustery Kennemer Golf & Country Club in Zandvoort, West of Amsterdam.

Luiten boshed his drive down the middle on the 18th and made par after Jimenez had only managed bogey because of a three-putt following a wayward drive.

Simon Dyson, Gregory Havret, Ross Fisher and Damien McGrane shared third place on nine-under.

Luiten, 27, who won the Lyoness Open in June, has now triumphed on three occasions on the European Tour.
