Seve Ballesteros could be moved out of intensive care as soon as next week, according to the hospital treating the five-time major winner.
Ballesteros was diagnosed with a brain tumour at La Paz hospital after losing consciousness at Madrid Airport early last month.
He underwent a lengthy operation on October 24 to reduce pressure on his brain caused by an edema and to remove remaining tumour tissues following two previous operations.
He was moved to the hospital's intensive care unit following the treatment.
The hospital released a statement today saying that Ballesteros, 51, is continuing to respond well to treatment and could move out of intensive care next week.
The statement read: "The neurological evolution of the patient Mr Severiano Ballesteros remains favourable.
"He continues to receive rehabilitative treatment and it is likely that he could leave the Intensive Care Unit next week and be moved to another ward."
