Robert MacIntyre has no intention of holding back when he goes in search of a second European Tour title on day four of the 2021 Omega Dubai Desert Classic.
The Scotsman enjoyed a stunning debut season on the Race to Dubai in 2019, finishing second three times en route to claiming the Sir Henry Cotton Rookie of the Year Award.
A maiden victory never looked far away and he lifted his first trophy at the 2020 Aphrodite Hills Cyprus Showdown but glory had not come as easily at it seemed.
The 24-year-old revealed after that triumph that he had struggled with his mental health during the first UK coronavirus lockdowns early in the year, recruiting a psychologist to help him through it.
The help certainly looks to have helped, with MacIntyre on a run of six consecutive top 25 finishes, and he enters day four at Emirates Golf Club just one shot behind Paul Casey, the man who edged him out for one of those runner up finishes in 2019.
"I'm not going to hang about," he said. "I'm going to put it all on the line whether it's good or bad.
"But tomorrow, hopefully it's going to be good and I've just got to enjoy it again. It's another experience that I want to get. It's something that not many people get the chance at my age to do and I'll give it everything I've got.
"I was patient and committed to every shot. That's something I struggled with last year but this year, it's been drilled into me by many people - accept what comes. Just control what you can control and it's working well."
