He also won the International Amateur Individual Championship three times, and the British Open eight times between 1969 and 1981. Hunt won 178 of the 215 tournaments he contested during his career. Hunt won the Australian Junior Championship in 1963, and he first won the Australian Amateur Men's Championship in 1965. Hunt was known for having great determination.
