“It’s been a good six weeks,” he said. “The mental aspect of that six-week stretch was high and then obviously winning last week was an even bigger high.
“If I played Memorial, US Open and the Travelers, that’s nine weeks in a row. Not many players play nine weeks in a row, except probably me, the madman.
“But does preparing right for the US Open not show ambition? It’s up to you.”
While winning in Canada has given him renewed belief that he can win on the USPGA Tour, he stressed that “I am not going to change as a person”.
MacIntyre revealed that he was laughing during the trophy presentation because he never expected to win with his father acting as an emergency caddie and “thought I was going to wake up from a dream”.
His weekend victory means he has gathered enough points to cut short his time on the US Tour and push for the DP World Tour finals in Europe.
“Me and my dad and family have just done something special and I just wanted to get home and spend time with the people who really matter in life,” he added.
“I want to be one of the best players in the world, if not the best. Lately, especially the last six weeks, that run of six events, something changed and the results have shown that.
“A lot has changed in the last week. It’s been a bit of a circus. But I’ve realised Scotland’s my home and it always will be.”
