Tiger Woods has been spotted testing out his swing in what can be construed as a positive sign that the 15-time major champion is considering a return to the PGA Tour.

Woods, 49, was seen hitting balls on the practice range at Liberty National Golf Club in Jersey City on Tuesday.

He was working off the rust for the Nexus Cup, a charity event that benefits Woods' TGR Foundation.

Video was released over social media, marking the first time Woods has been seen publicly swinging a golf club since he underwent surgery to repair a ruptured left Achilles tendon on March 11.

Fellow PGA Tour professional Will Zalatoris, who is working his way back from back surgery, was spotting next to Woods.

The last official tournament Woods played was a missed cut at the 2024 Open Championship.

Woods has long been plagued by health issues. He underwent his sixth back operation last September and he continues to deal with the effects of a 2021 car accident.

There is no official timetable for his return to competition.
