If I was what you might call a "fast finisher," it was because I was always mentally receptive to a fast finish; I was receptive to the idea that there was always time to make up some ground right to the very last hole. I played to win even when common sense dictated that I no longer had a realistic chance. Even when I was playing my worst or when all the breaks seemed to be going against me, I approached each shot as an opportunity to get going again. That was my golfing personality.
