Injury-hit Tiger Woods says he is hitting 60-yard shots but the 14-time major winner has no date in mind for a return to competitive action.
Woods is recovering from a fourth back operation in the last three years and has not played since withdrawing from the Dubai Desert Classic in February.
"I'm feeling good, strong and doing really well," the former world number one, 41, wrote on his website.
"I'm sleeping better because I don't have any nerve pain going down my leg."
The American has not won a tournament anywhere since 2013, while his title drought in major championships dates back to 2008.
However, he is building up his fitness after being cleared to resume short-game practice.
I'm feeling good, strong and doing really well
"About my most recent surgery, it's nice not to live in pain any more," added Woods, who will be an assistant captain for the United States in next week's Presidents Cup.
"I'm starting to hit the ball a little further - 60-yard shots. I have not taken a full swing since my back fusion surgery last April, but continue to chip and putt every day,” Woods said. (BBC)
