New Zealand Golf is mourning the passing of arguably the country's best amateur, Stuart Jones.

The Hastings golfer has died peacefully at his home surrounded by family.

He first played for New Zealand in 1953 and for two decades dominated the New Zealand amateur championship, winning it seven times, and added Canadian and Australian amateur titles as well.

Jones twice won professional tournaments in New Zealand though never joined the pro tour.
