A reputation is almost never changed by a single act, and this will very likely be the same.  My only direct experience with Kevin Na came while I was a marshal at the 2014 US Open at Pinehurst.  Na hit a ball way left on the par-3 sixth hole, where I was on the ropes.  Facing a difficult pitch off the sand path, under the branches of a small tree, over a steep-faced bunker, he pretty quickly assessed the situation and hit an amazing shot into the sliver of grass above the bunker, bumping the ball onto the green.  He was not only quick and decisive, but he and his caddie thanked me and some of the spectators for helping take down and replace the ropes.  I was pretty impressed all the way around.  

He's made a nice (and improbable) comeback from full-swing yips. It's not surprising that he played just fine at that pace. He said he did his full routine on each shot (but possibly backed off less), though he ran in between each shot and between holes.

Watching him run in at the end of the round was really great and fun to watch. Good for him.
