Former champion Graeme McDowell has vowed to take the right attitude into his bid for a second victory in the Corales Puntacana Championship.

McDowell admits he would prefer to be among the world's top 64 eligible players competing in the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play instead of contesting the event in the Dominican Republic.
