Taylor, Griffin share lead at Memorial Tournament

Taylor, who claimed his fifth PGA title at the Sony Open this year, navigated rain-soaked Muirfield Village with little real trouble on the way to a 36-hole total of seven-under par 137.

"The iron game was very, very sharp," Taylor said. "Putting, made bunch of nice five-, six-footers on that back nine for par."

Overnight leader Griffin, coming off his second win of the season at Colonial last week, had one bogey and one birdie in an even-par 71 to maintain a share of the lead.
