Another way of understanding this is by Kepler's 3rd law:


"The square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit."


That means:


the larger the axis of orbit, the larger the orbital period

Which is the same as:


the larger the axis of orbit, the smaller the speed

Which is the same as:


the smaller the axis of orbit, the larger the speed (and, therefore, the larger the angular speed).
