Oct. 15 (UPI) -- Tiger Woods sported his Sunday red in a video he posted on his golfing progress.

Woods made the post at 5:01 p.m. Sunday and wrote "making progress" in the caption, In the nine second video, Woods settles in before swiping a golf ball off of the tee with his driver.

The 41-year-old had his fourth back surgery in April and hasn't played competitive golf since January. Woods' doctors cleared him to start pitching in August. In September he started hitting from 60 yards but still wasn't taking full swings. He admitted later that month that he might never return to the sport.

"Yeah, definitely," Woods told reporters in September when asked if he could see a scenario in which he doesn't return to competitive golf. "I don't know what my future holds for me. As I've told you guys, I'm hitting 60-yard shots."

Woods helped mentor the United States team to a Presidents Cup victory in early October in New Jersey.

Tiger posted another video of himself driving the ball on Oct. 10 and posted a video of an iron shot on Oct. 7.

"As I wrote earlier this summer, I had a few matters to work on with my doctors and I did that," Woods wrote on his blog on Sept. 22. "I'm feeling good, strong and doing really well. About my most recent surgery, it's nice not to live in pain anymore. I'm sleeping better because I don't have any nerve pain going down my leg. It makes a world of difference."
