(Reuters) - Tony Finau and Ryan Palmer overcame slow starts to share the lead at the halfway point of the Memorial Tournament in Ohio on Friday while Tiger Woods narrowly made the cut thanks to a seven-foot par putt on his final hole of the day.

Starting on the back nine, overnight leader Finau struggled out of the gate with bogeys on two of his first three holes.
