When one is so determined to win, one expresses it in such a fierce way. As far as he/she is concerned, the word "losing" just isn't in their vocabulary. There is no other alternative-winning is not a must. It's the only possible outcome.
Of course you could use phrase 1 and state your goal in that way. However, equally effective is sentence 2, which also expresses a high degree of determination to win. In English, when speaking about events which require a vast amount of dedication and effort, it is often part of the competitor's psyche and training to be both confident and assertive when speaking about goals. Sentence 1 is a little bland in that respect.
