Jeev Milkha Singh winning the Order of Merit title twice in 2006 and 2008, the 24-year-old Bhullar does not have to look far as he strives to become Asia's best player this season.
"Jeev has set targets for us. I would say we need to work really hard. The two wins, multiple category right now, winning the Order of Merit would be nice," said Bhullar, who earned USD 118,875 from his fourth Asian Tour victory in Macau.
"There're a lot of big weeks coming up. Singapore, Hong Kong, Johor and the Indian Open, Obviously, it's not that far (from his position on the Order of Merit) and a few good weeks can jump my ranking to number one," added Bhullar
While Singh still leads the title count, Bhullar believes that the gap will be narrowed in time to come.
"Obviously what Jeev has done, he has won about 13 international titles and I've only won four. The number is increasing. Jeev is our idol and one day we'll try to catch up," said Bhullar.
The Indian is confident that he can take over the mantle and continue to put India on the world map when his illustrious compatriots decide to call time on their career.
"I guess the next responsibility of Indian golf is on our shoulders, including Himmat Rai and Anirban Lahiri. We are the future of Indian golf. We have to prove to the people that the next generation is ready to take over," said Bhullar. MORE
